    also look out for Phaeolus schweinitzii fruit bodies indicating decay.
  3. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    that tree is in trouble, drought stress for one, needle drop and die back is probably related to the lack of permeable surface! no mycorrhizea ect, lift as many slabs as your willing mulch and try to get some agaricus augustus fruit bodies to innoculate the rootzone or watch it die in the dry weather.

    Dont worry Paul, the spaces will fill, this is going to be a great event and the line up of speakers and topics is very good, looking forward to Paul Ellcoats and Glyn in particular. though I will of course enjoy your talks too Paul! come on guys and girls, this will be informative, and a right good social giggle, some very nice trees in the grounds, and I havent even checked out th deer park yet, where we will be if you want to follow having a walk after the day to see if we can hear/see some bats and look at some old trees and body languages.
