  1. That looks like it will pick up the land rover in the background.
  2. I see no rain or brambles, or irate car drivers because you have stopped the traffic, lucky you. Nice job, well thought out.
  3. I did two miles for tilhill last year, and they wanted it cleared up to 15'.
  4. Ere you go Jon, for when you get your big buts of Codwood. Now you can get them home

  6. Cheers Tony, that will be why i can not find it, it is not in my copy of Roger Phillips.
  7. Just spent 20 minutes looking through Phillips, and i am still none the wiser. Growing on a dead Cherry branch.
  8. They are producing alot of growth this year, and it maybe due to drought stress. My sunset tree started producing every other year, to stop it i picked about half the fruit in early june. Producing such a bumper crop was not sustainable for the tree, so it would have a break. By removing half the fruit early on , the tree was not so exhausted. It is now producing every year. For your trees i would prune out most of the new growth this winter, and thin out half of the apples next june.
  9. There are some huge Douglas fir on the small back road that goes out of Betws y coed towards Caple Curig. The road mirrors the A5 going towards the swallow falls.
  10. It's a long way west in West wales, any takers ?

  12. You can not beat the first trickle of water down your neck, to know that you are going to have a good day at work. Anything else is just boring.

  18. I bought the small one and put a long axe handle on so that i don't have bend down to lift a log.
  19. You will be wanting one of these: Ochsenkopf 380mm Hand Sappies | Clark Forest : Forestry Tools
  20. A Cord is a unit of measurement: 8'long 4' high & 4' width. Much faroured by our friends over the pond
  21. Don't let Jon see that, he likes big buts, and he will want a ride.
