    wine

    There seems to be alot of us on here who likes a bottle of wine. In the living woods magazine there was a piece about the cork oak farmers. the farmers cut the bark every 9 years 18 times in the life of the tree but this industry is dying as the wine bottles are now corked with synthetic stoppers. To save these trees and the jobs of the farmers we need to ask for bottles with cork with 3500 members this will go a long way to telling wine merchants that we still want real cork stoppers:thumbup:
  24. Not to far off topic. Today i was working at my yard and i counted through the day 12 trucks with firewood on. No wonder i am getting no orders As long as there not pinching it from my woods:cursing:
  25. Yes i have sold three loads its a start. I sold a load on sat the man was looking through it as i tipped checking it had a bit of spruse in LOL
