daz it is a chainsaw!!! And it saws a treat now that it has a new blade and chain! I go and scrounge for wood, so I passed a HUGE branch fallen off an oak tree lying in the side of the hedgerow when I came off the hill on the crosser last Friday. Ian and I went to pick it up in his pickup Saturday afternoon. It needed cutting into manageable lengths on the roadside. Once cut up and split it filled half my logstore Another 1/3 of the store was filled with an almost equally large bit of blackthorn. It all burns a treat as it was nicely seasoned along the roadside

Hmmmm, warmth for weeks

Oh and I watched the first round of the national cyclocross league as it was in Abergavenny. All top riders were there, so I thought I have a look at how it is done. Definitely going to give it a go myself in a couple of weeks or so, after the relays...
