I talked Ray into picking out 10 trees and then had the local nursery collect them at the monthly wholesale meeting where all teh nurseries meet to exchange goods. It was alot of fun getting ten trees turn up that I had not chosen and then make something out of them. He was not keen though it took a bit of sweet talking about how I would rather spend the money on trees than petrol getting there. I think your second option would be better

On a side note I think I need to get invited to this monthly wholesale meeting in the city to see what goes on there

Never heard about ray doing mail order Sorry

get a mate to pick one if you can trust them to look after it

....

i was actually hoping someone on here could help me out a little on that side of things....

i will see how much postage will cost on something like this first though

those elms are just to good to pass up at a price like that but
