I've often wondered why councils don't plant more nut and fruit trees in public places, so the public could forage fresh when out and about :D


Can you imagine the health and safetly implications? The trees and bushes would be dying under the weight of all the warning signs - imagine having to nail a sign saying "warning - may contain nuts" onto every hazel tree in the land...

Bumped by some spam hey Taluis? :roll:

Anyone know of anything worth trying at the moment?

Also is it legal to spark up a fire in public if done safely? Now I'm not talking about something large enough to spit roast half a dozen oxen over, but a small fire to brew up on and get warm.
I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.
