If its not viable to take it away,whats the harm on posting on here,(website for arborists etc)that the timber is no cost,one of us can have a few quid out of Apbell's consideration in this post,in these times that gets the thumbs up from me,seems you cant win sometimes.

The scroungers are already just that,& I would not knock an idea for fear of encouraging them,they are born that way!

 

Thanks Geoff I thought along the same lines as yourself . Someone could easily make a few hundred pounds out of this wood . As I,m not into the firewood thing I thought I,d pass the message on .

 

Sometimes you just cant win .

If it was in the members only area then maybe i would agree with you, but this is open to the eyes of the world, and someone reading that would possibly use it to explain away a theft or blag...."oh well arborists dont want it anyway guvnor" attitude

I hear you,but the distinction is that taking without asking is theft,that is a clear line.

The fact that this thread has raised all these points makes it a bonus,it might get one of ours a bit of money this winter,& the eyes of the world can see that we dont like people just presuming its all free.

I never meant to stir it up or cause offence, I just wanted to highlight the silly bitching that goes on about people asking if the wood is going begging, after all who wouldnt?

If it was closer I would be on my way but Hampshire to cheshire at 15mph would kill the job. If any one has large take downs near Andover I will be able to collect soon and 2ft stems up to 3 tonne will not be a problem. Save you ringing up:thumbup1:

Hamma,the scroungers have & always will go for a freeby,all good discussion,And a nice offer from Apbell.

I love the ones who ask about the rings on the back of the truck,or ready for loading,I can respond as I wish,its the ones who dont ask that get my knickers in a twist.
