I wish I was a human oak...from a shoot...when it's time to cut down I will share myself...

Harry this another I have just twigged. The old oak once a shoot from an acorn, it's trunk now acting as a jack holding up its branches, (a timberjack). The truth is my Mrs is very poorly and my mind is not working as it should with all the worry, so if I still can I will change your 3 to a 1. No, I have already used the option, my apology, to you and all. Will get back to you soon, Mick
