    Sure, they do it to produce energy here. We had some small scale logging done, the entire tree went in the chipper. Pretty neat to watch.

    Hey I'm from Bristol too! ;)
    As far as what makes me sad goes.... Knowing I'm as old as I've ever been, and the youngest I'll ever be again :faint:

    Maybe not too distant though? Years ago my aunt married a man who came from the UK. On the wedding day, he had a few relatives fly in for the ceremony. Strangely enough, his niece was a lively woman from Bristol, England.

    I have a bit of a hard time with relatives and friends passing on.

    Chipped wood usually gets used for <something> besides taking up space in a landfill. Of course, most modern landfills today recover the methane and whatnot produced from anaerobic decomposition. So there's that.
