Busy times ahead

[Les Symonds]

Looks like the quiet season, when all the tourists go back home, might be spent sorting and end-waxing logs!

About 2.5 tonne of ash...


....plus about a cubic metre of elder...


...and about 3 cubic metres of yew...

By the time you finish that lot you will be a little Elder and in need of a fag(ash) won't Yew ?

That looks good Les, I envy you the yew. As the winter months come on the rain comes down and yew don't want to be using the chainsaw in the cold and rain, have you invested in an electric chainsaw yet ? Cutting the logs in the workshop makes such a huge difference when it's cold outside.

Groan, groan!

Ah, Julian....north Walians are not as soft as the southerners, so it isn't really a problem. However, I'm born and bred in the south so yep, I feel the cold, but I have a 5metre x 4metre open-ended lean-to outside where I sometimes saw up my logs, much to SWMBO's annoyance, as she has washing lines under there as well....I just can't win.

I have just done some converting the wife even went out and brought me a new petrol chain saw, so now when I start on logs she comes out and seals all the bits and pieces for me. She must love me

Les,

you're going to have to slow down a bit, that lot would keep most of us going for the rest of our naturals, not one winter.
