    You're close to where my sister lives, if the job takes over a day I'd have somewhere to get my head down for the night. Id be interested in doing this for a share of the wood as opposed to cash. Drop me a message on 07478707749 (if you have an iphone) or email me at [email protected] and we can discuss further and it would be good to see some pics to. Andy

    But its great that you did. Means we dont have to and its a learning curve thats been officially crossed off as opposed to a 'what-if'.

    Had my iPhone 6+ for over 4 years now. But I do keep it in a good case. Job done as far as Im concerned. Had a couple of cases and loads of screen protectors. But then I do kinda use my phone as a Hammer.

    Cheers, that might be another way to go. I'll try that first. Interview over the phone with the bank for the Mortgage, approved in Principle so far but this next 2 hour phone call will be the deciding call. ? Could have the house bought by the end of the month if all going well.

    I do think I need to be caution, hence why Im asking here just to be safe. The Trees are generally not that old and have been left to grow wild over the last 30 odd years and have almost swallowed up the Greenhouse Pad. In another section of the plot there is planted softwood. Im assuming I could remove them? Yes, I think I'll just ask them. Especially since I might not be able to remove the 5 cubes a quarter. Thanks again.

    Cheers Jan. Appreciate it.

    Hard to see on Google Maps but my house is circled in Black, the other cottages in Yellow and red. The forested area is quite plain to see though, as is the shadow they throw over the field. The other pics are just what they look like.

    The costs not the issue, the fine Id get if Im wrong might be. The Eastern Europeans that at one time lived in the cottages next to me had wild parties every weekend and often during the week. Smashed the place up and had hookers in often. We had Bottles of Vodka lobbed into the 'garden/Forrest most days. My Wife was in constant fear when I went off-shore. Thankfully they where evicted after a few months, all 9 of them.So no, no Eastern Europeans for me.

    My concern is it could be debatable and what trouble Id get in if its not classed as a garden. Im wanting more than just light in, Id like to make it my garden properly and be able to use it. Just now its just a jungle.

    My House is also under that hatched area, the main building in the pic. I'll try and post some pics up, might look less like a garden when you actually see it.

    Its a well over grown garden (I think?) Looks like a Greenhouse was there but all thats left is the concrete pad. Yeh, Im not sure if I should play dumb or ask first? I would be replanting anyway but with fruit trees. More of an Orchard I could wizz my Ride-on Mower around but still have views out to the Hills and most importantly light.
  12. trigger_andy
    Ah ok, I guess that explains why I cant see over what plot size. How do you calculate 5 cubes though? Main trunk? Main Trunk and Branches? The whole Tree?
  13. trigger_andy
    Seems like the first three could apply to me;' 1. Up to five cubic metres of timber within any set calendar quarter [1 January to 31 March; 1 April to 30 June; 1 July to 30 September; 1 October to 31 December]. This exemption does not apply in native broadleaved woodland between 0.1 and 0.5 hectares inclusive, and Caledonian Pinewood sites. 2. Any trees with a diameter at breast height (measured at 1.3 metres from the ground) of 10 centimetres or less. 3. Trees in orchards, gardens, churchyards, burial grounds, and public open spaces. 1, The 5 Cubes per quarter, Im not sure how on what size of plot that covers? 2, Is that on top of the 5 Cubes per quarter? 3, I guess the easiest thing to do is get the local forestry professional to view the property to see if the plot is classed as a garden. But going by the drawing would anyone hazard a guess if it is classed as my garden?

    Cheers, I'll have a look.

    Hey all, so I have the chance to buy the house Im renting in a month or two. Ive been renting here for 4 years and the house has a nice plot. Its about 5000sq/m. As you can see in the drawing below there is the main garden and a forested section, its been left to its own devices over the last goodness knows how many decades and is a complete light blocker to the house from 12:00 to Sun Down. There is a Cement Pad at the rear of the House thats now over grown, but looks like it was a Green House at one point of its life. My house is the one in the red Hatching lines. So my question is can I clear fell these tree's as its technically my garden? Or do I need to obtain a felling licence? Or is there a certain about of timber I can fell a year per Acre? I read somewhere it was 7 ton per Acre a year but cant remember where I read that? Thanks all.

    True dat! Might even do it now.
  17. trigger_andy
    Way to many variables but for a good Wood Burning Stove that also heats my hot water? £3000 I guess?
  18. trigger_andy
    For sure its ok. Me as well.
  19. trigger_andy
    52! Thats bloody impressive. Ive be bent double for a week after that lot! I hope you where suitably compensated?
  20. trigger_andy
    Sounds like hell. Id have them doing weird tasks to 'prove their worth' just to pass the day.
  21. trigger_andy
    Id be more in tune with the author I guess?
  22. trigger_andy
    It was more the first part. Was he trying to write in the third person? Was he trying to type, I Write Stubby Lad? Or maybe he was trying to type Aye right Stubby Lad? Who knows these things? The second was not much better really. The amount of question marks made me ponder if it was a rhetorical question or more of a demand. But then followed it up with 'aint it' and no question mark, almost as if he had previously used them all up. Like I said, gave me a migraine.

    Very similar to Isopropanol but as Aceton is Nail Poilish remover its much cheaper than Isopropanol.
  24. trigger_andy
    This post gives me a migraine. What are you actually trying to say?
  25. trigger_andy
    I got some Barrels filled with water, some yeast and some grain. By my estimates thats £5000 worth of Whisky........
