They’ve already been out on some trails with the chainsaw to clear them but up on the Pylon Loop it’s going to take a gang of chainsaws to have the right impact.

Ruta – back to the typical British summer I hear. Definitely time for people to start looking for alternative energy sources given British Gas have decided to rip people off. Power bills here in New Zealand are astronomical too. When you’ve finished returning your gravel to the drive can you pop over and put our top soil back on the banks!

OH’s response to fallen trees is ‘tree- chainsaw- firewood’. Not a bad idea considering the astronomical price of heating, gas went up 35% yesterday. good thing we have a wood burner to suppliment our heating. Incidently, it’s supposed to be summer here,( Devon), monsoon more like and not very warm, 17C. Yesterday in 3 hours we had 10mm of rain. Better get back to raking up all the gravel from the drive which is now in the front yard.

Who cleans them up? (It’s probably a dumb question, but I’m new to that kind of world) such amazing destruction, but I imagine it made for a nice change to the walk.
