Ozzy , I like your choice of accent

I saw them when I was in the UK the catalog was phenomenal. Would you believe the five fingered brigade get into them too

Cheers Pup

Pup, you should have smuggled one back to Oz for me in your carry on luggage

I would have swapped it for something of a similiar size, you know, like an Elephant maybe

YEP! ya right about that Pup. In the south of Italy they have become protected too. There is a huge racket run where heavy digging equip is takin into the hills to rip these ancient beauties out, so as the crooked and wealthy can have them in their gardens. I can only hope that what was once my Grand fathers tree is still there.

I got tired waiting for the upload but even scanning the hazy small images... staggering. I can see a positive aspect to it, trees that could have been neglected could now be cherished, but on the other hand it seems like robbing heritage to give some moneyed person a chance to expand his chest a bit more. Another rape of our fair planet. But I would think that some of these trees were rescued from proposed developments so there is definitely a positive side.
