I am really not that disagreeable. I think that perhaps we should draw a line under all this and start again. Circular arguments aren't really my thing and I'm pretty sure that there are a lot of things we agree on. I think my posts on other threads show that. This is, of course, not to say I will never argue again.
Suffice to say that nothiing I have said was meant to be personal in a derogatory way but if anyone has taken it to be so please accept my apologies.

As I said. Quick with thi Gob, talks all day and says nowt.

Ah yes, but from little Acorns mighty Oaks do grow.

We might just be able to branch out and really develop a worthwhile thread.

Methinks the guy's bark is worse than his bite.

Have you twigged yet? let's leaf this thread alone.

Surely even this post was worth logging on for?

We, the members should be rooting for a greater contribution from our sapling members.

O.K. I give up my head hurts, someone elses turn.
:)

Let's not beat about the bush, it's plane to see and elm-entary that out of the ash of this trunk-ated thread wood arise a new and more poplar forum for those who are sycamore ranting.

Your just larching about susie:rolleyes:

I won't pine when this thread ends.
...but yew never can tell when that will be
..it could prove poplar

Wood you Adam & Eve it ? Budding from his planting a question, the thread has blossomed in to something horticultural & rather high bough at times. I cedar way this is branching out so we don't need to get back to the roots & if we stick with this vine, who knows ? I think we'd be barking to stop now, so just shrub your shoulders & willownly know as we carry on if this will be an evergreen or knot. :)

Some deciduously dubious ones there, but hey, no need to keep it privet or beat around the bush,after all ,we're only larching about. :D

Well I'm totally stumped at the moment..but I do beleaf this thread needs to be spruced up.

Time to finish, OAKy?

I was met with the sight of hundreds of plastic things hiding young trees. Now I love trees as much as anybody (probably more than most) but I think some places are better without them. This particular meadow has sweeping views and plenty of space for dogs to run free, not to mention a safe place for women alone to walk the dog. I was frankly sickened by the sight of it.
Does anyone know who is responsible for this act of environmental vandalism? When grown the views will be gone and the whole area will be enclosed and potentially unsafe.
Answers please.

I have just read through the posts in this thread and noted that no answer has yet been given to Houseboy's original question. I have therefore e-mailed the Baxenden councillors to see if they can shed any light on this tree-planting scheme. Seems like this might be a sensible place to start.
