I see Katie is still out and about with you J

 

She's doing well and I've adapted my work a bit to accommodate her. I try to avoid doing long distance extraction, and she generally does the full morning tramping about and then sleeps the afternoon off. She's happy and eager to get out

Gorgeous woodland shots Jon, ones from Sweden next year ☺️ K

 

Broadleaf woodlands like that aren't too common there, and whilst I'm enjoying myself at present, I won't miss them. Big ugly trees (from a timber point of view) and no brash to run on.

Visited a site this afternoon which we replanted with eucalyptus (mostly nitens, but the very tallest are mostly denticulata) April 2020. This is what some of the tallest trees look like now. 

 

These may well be the fastest growing trees in the UK. The tallest one is 5.6m at 19 months old.

And here are a few shots from the thinning a block on the other side of the road. It was worked in early 2020. You cannot tell that we were there. No trace at all. 

 

Also one shot of a track we created within the eucalyptus block.

I've been over in Sweden this week building contacts, testing a Malwa forwarder and finalising stuff on our house (pictured). 

 

We're still not moving until August but we could move sooner (technically). It's nice not to have to rush.

Hope it works out for you John, after Scotland and Devon you’ve done England, on wards and northwards…
