Very good article and covers lot of good points - with no focus on softwood planting where is tomorrow's commercial timber going to come from plus the decline in jobs.

 

The UK debt being out of control is well documented, the trade deficit not so much: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-30585540. If we could get some kind of balance into out forestry industry we could create jobs from planting right through to milling and cut down on imports.

Great thread TVI, thank you.

 

I'd love to do what you do - but am stuck at a computer in an office. One day though, I will own a small patch of woodland. Please keep the pics coming in the meantime.

 

Oh, and I like Terry Pratchett and Hammond Innes too! Especially TP.
