Thanks, The drive is ok, till it gets dark. The twilight is the worst on my old eyes, once it’s properly night it’s easier for me to see. Looking forward to getting back, the dog has missed me!

Heading home to France after the apf and seeing some mates. 4 hr crossing from Newhaven, followed by a 6 hr drive.

Hi, they are Rowan trees. The one that’s browning off is obviously not as good as the one with berries. in preparation for next spring you could try mulching the base. Was there a difference in soil texture between the two planting positions? Otherwise, wait and see, it might be ok.

Dunno, didn’t know there were so many heavy sweaters out there. My climate here in SW France is much hotter than yours in Scotchland. I am mostly arb as opposed to forestry though, so spend most of the day shagging housewives in air conditioned comfort for a grand a day, which helps of course.

Lovely day ahead (hopefully) Finishing off a 4 day job we had to pull off due to weather last week. Get the loader and chipper back home. Clean out the pick-up ready for Thursday’s drive to Blighty for the APF. Will also have a night in the pub with some old mates. Happy days!

Look like Mossad have pulled off a major coup. Somehow got 1200 of their pagers to Hezbollah officials, packed them with explosive, phoned them up at the same time…

Holiday entitlement a big deal here. It really is part of the French DNA to have a break in the summer.

I gave it a rest for a while, then came back. If I don’t feel like it I don’t do it.
