  1. Over on FaceBook there is someone called ……….Pint of Plane. ……….. I have reported but just to let you know.

  2. Do you ever use Hawthorn? I'm planting on as a memorial tree this week on the outer Isles of Scotland. However due to its sacred status in celtic lore and being the gateway to otherwords its forbidden to cut them down. I believe in Ireland they stand alone from where people didn't like the idea of chancing their luck.

    Anyway, before I knew this several years back the local coucil had chopped down many trees one of those was a giant hawthorn or maybe blackthorn I can't remember what the group told me bmmow but a fair big base around 2.5 feet all round.

    It had lovely black growth rings and such like. I hope to find some again giving I'm forbidden to cut them down 😂 I prefer to scavenge anyway plenty are chopped and wasted anough to be taken

  3. I had a good stick found it made it usable then some dick destroyed it i miss that stick I can't find a good new one
