365+1 - Generosity

Kit: Gingerscraps - scrap your life
This was a challenging prompt,  I thought about showing the pile of stuff I have ready for the charity shop or the envelope we are sending off an old mobile phone in but somehow that seemed rather unexciting.  So when I saw our friends arrive to have another go at cutting up the beech tree which had come down with the strong winds, I thought it would make an ideal subject.  We don't have any wood burning stoves so have given them the wood.  In return they are cutting it up and getting it off our field. So Generosity on both sides and mutual benefit.

Interesting how many men it takes to watch a young lad chop up a log, isn't it?

  4. Our log burner was lit yesterday for the first time this Winter; nothing as calorific as beech available though, just rotting pine logs from trees felled four years ago and this year's prunings from the carob!
