  1. Hi. A few weeks ago I developed pains in my chest and back after going to a+e I was diagnosed with Costochondritis. I can only presume I got this from spliting wood all day by hand. Anyways after 4 or days after and some naproxen it went. Yesterday I spent a day splitting again. Only to get the pains again today. has anyone had this condition wondering if there is any other treatments. Maybes have to buy a splitter. I'm just paranoid it may get worse and affect my climbing. I'm 24 with a clean bill off health. Any advice would be much appreciated thanks
  2. Cheers for advice. I I'm going to contact the local T.O and ask his advice.
  3. Hi had phone call off a customer today to have a look at this tree. Notice there was a fare bit of rot in the bottom any theorys as to what could have caused it.

Well im abit short on timber so I checked the logs today and there finger light . They were stacked on pallets out side with a cover over the top and the sides exposed so the wind could get at them. The question I ask is it oright to burn ???
