Thanks. This is an amazing place to live and work for sure. Silky I'm from Berwick, haven't lived there for quite a long time though. Will be contract climbing around the north east and borders, or anywhere interesting.

Give me a facebook when you get back paddy, we'll go for a pint

Out collecting windblow sweet chestnut from the 87 storms!

What will that chestnut be used for?

[Caleb]

A couple of the really shaky bits we are just putting a flat side on them they will go back out on to the estate as benches.

The other bits will be milled for posts and rails for tree boxes again used on the estate in fields with cattle in.

Bet it still spits like wet conifer.

It's amazingly wet still it's been on the ground.

Apart from the live wood which has pretty rotted away, it's hard to tell that it has been down that long looks like its green.

Cheers Adam, I'll be in touch.

Was let out of the woods to do some contract climbing this week. Old beech with decay to remove. The crown was done last week
