I found a good compost last year ,Mother Earth one of the best I have used no woody bits comes from Ireland our allotment site is ordering couple pallets of it

Presumably if it's from Ireland it will have a high peat content. Personally I have no problem with using small amounts of peat as I make a lot of my own compost but some people can be a bit touchy about peat-based composts. Get yourself a couple of compost heaps and leaf mould piles going and you'll not have to worry about woody bits or anything else.

SC are you Monty Don in disguise 

Must be about 1 to 50,00 gardeners have access to enough leaves to make a pile never mind get enough leaf mould to use!

You can get leaves - its having the space for a couple of leaf mould stacks that foxes me 

If you ask a local gardening firm or get a contact number at anywhere where they have garden maintenance services coming in, you can have as many as you like each autumn. 

I used to work at a retail nursery where they also had garden maintenance vans out and about every day.   A mountainous leaf mould stack was easy for us as we had yard space.  I used to have a nice sideline running for choccy biccies for the nursery sales office from customers who wanted to dig out bags of the old stuff and take it away
