Land Ownership

[Gary Prentice]

The scumbag is someone making a fella who didn't know any different take em back 200 yards just to stick the knife in...

 

If it was me, I'd maybe take em back if I was asked politely, but if If some idiot demanded I take em back.. I'd be weighing up which side of his jaw he was going to get whacked on...

 

So we can have now established that, your attitude is that once you get caught thieving, you think the correct response is to be indignant?

[Mick Dempsey]

He's just trolling lads.

I thought I may get some advice regarding just taking them ha! It did cross my mind.

 

To be fair - they aren't cut and stacked ready for seasoning etc - they look like the bits they couldn't sell on and rather than take them and try process them they've just left it all on the ground.

 

I'm pretty sure that I've seen someone up there chopping and filling their car. I can't be discreet with a chainsaw though.

 

There might be some legitimate reasons why the wood has been left. Or it might not have been economical to remove the wood.

 

Do you have any photos of the wood you're talking about? The hive mind of arbtalk is likely to know if it's a habitat pile or a part load of Sitka or even just brash.

You never cease to put my jaw on the floor. I always thought you were mostly a troll.

Was it Maggie Thatcher who said "Socialism is an excellent system....untill you run out of other people's firewood"

 

Or words to that effect?

from what he said I assume the land is not used by anyone and the logs have been there a while

Sitting in the middle of a small wood near me are some logs. Nobody 'uses' the wood apart from walkers and horse riders. The logs have been there a while.

 

The wood in question belongs to a friend of mine. I fell the standing dead as he prefers them to be down - they are mine when I want them. Mostly they are slightly undersize oak and I leave them there until I need to mill them as hauling them out of the wood complete is a pain and they aren't in the way where they lie. The sapwood rots away but the heartwood remains fine. When I need one, I will go and mill it, extract the planks and remove them.

 

Don't assume that because a wood does not appear to be used, or the timber is 'laying about' it is abandoned and up for grabs.

That does not mean the land and timber is not owned .
