Bob .... it is what it is .... won't get fixed by worrying about it .... if I can't get a contractor to clear it for replanting I'll just have to bore people by talking about my 'rewilding' project 😁

Dealing with that mess is much more dangerous than normal felling .... trunks and limbs are under enormous pressure in places and the piled trees are unstable .... will nip out with my chainsaw tomorrow to do some essential tidy-up along the side of my track ... but I'll be being extremely cautious!!

Hopefully I'll liberate enough logs so as not have to worry about firewood for a year or six.

Roof is no problem .... will pick a dry calm day .... I'll just end up walking like John Wayne for a bit from straddling the ridge as I work along it 🙂
