"What do you mean?"

"You know what I mean! What have you done to the dog leads?"

"Nothing!"

"Well, why do they look like this?"

"Oh. That. Let me explain..."




I usually walk the dogs way too early. At this time of year it is in darkness, and I need a headtorch.

This morning I stumbled (literally) over a tree that was clearly felled yesterday. Can't pass that up.

Get home and kennel the dogs. Return to the scene, and begin to lash up the timber with the dog leads and drag it back home over my shoulder. I repeat this over and over, until I have cleared the entire tree.

It takes longer than I anticipated.

At the end of my wee adventure, my knees are fcuked, and my shooting shoulder is traumatised. This is awkward as I need that.


Warning. The following photograph contains nudity and make excite readers of a delicate disposition...for clarity it is my shoulder!

I stack the wood in the dark, and feel very pleased at my up-cycling effort.

With the rising of the sun, and the increase in visibility, comes the realisation that the wood is not brilliant for burning...

Bugger!


I could go on, but I cannot see to type through the tears of pain.

Now if you will excuse me, I need to find some Ibuprofen and a new dog lead...
 
It strikes me that you are in dire need of another adventure to foreign lands with a rifle. If only to keep you out of mischief.
Funny thing.

Heading off in the next couple of days, which is why dicking about with my shooting shoulder was less than wise.😖

As for keeping out of mischief?

Just not in my DNA...😉
 
Just a thought but have you just admitted to stealing timber?
Who owns the land on which the tree fell, and do you have the legal right to extract the timber?
Losing your FAC for a tree theft conviction would be a might embarrassing.

I have no more 'stolen the timber' than I have 'stolen the litter' I regularly clear from the site.

Nor have I 'criminally damaged' the trees, I regularly clear up when they are windfall.

It's all good.
