long road ahead
« on: May 24, 2011, 00:42 »
Hi All,

I’ve just spent my first weekend working on my new allotment\jungle.  My back is killing me, my arms and legs are scratched to bits but I can’t wait for next weekend to do it all over again.

Anyway, there’re a number of fairly large trees which are going to be removed, and I think it would be a shame to just dispose of them.  So I’m wondering if anyone has any creative ideas how to reuse them?

Cheers
Paul

Isn't it a great feeling!  All that pain and aching!! But so worth it.  Congratulations on real work with a satisfying pay off.  No ideas about the trees - just check they're not protected  ;) 
Welcome to the worn out but happy club  :D

we were in exactly the same position as you exactly 12 months ago, all I can tell you is there will be ups and downs, at times you'll wonder why you took this on - but the reward will come with that first crop!
