Hi Natalie

Just introducing mysely

Is it 'northumberland firewood' that you are running? I am down in N tyne and run a firewood business, out of Wark forest, putting out around 300 tonnes per year at the moment, most of it is bought in as we dont get much from tree surgery arisings, although we have some felling work lined up for early next year up near Alnwick. I bought 50 tonnes good hardwood thinnings from 'hardwood logger' early this year, he is a nice guy, based at Wallington.

I love the Firewood business, but also really love the tree surgery and the work we do for FC, eg brashing/spraying etc, just like working out in the wilds basically! Tim & I have run a tree surgery / firewood business for over 25 years, used to be a big deal, but moved up here 8 years ago and scaled right down, funny that we actually make a better living on our own. I have a girl who does part time now, logs and groundwork,

Anyway, hope to hear from you sometime Steph
