Please bare with us while we update Ebor Forestry`s blog!

Ebor Forestry are exhausted just reading the Forestry Commission`s latest guidance notes about all sorts of stuff and are dreaming up new ways of taking the piss.

Mrs Ebor Forestry says we should just wait and see what the Regional Forestry Strategy tells us to do next or wait for a phone call from a Regional Development Initiative Project Manager who has access to a clipboard and PowerPoint technology.

In the meantime, we`ll just sit here with this nice blanket over our legs, sipping Heinz Tomato Soup watching a nice Cary Grant DVD now that ITV`s Loose Women has finished for the summer hols.

There`s fuck-all else to do while it pisses down outside.

Ebor Forestry`s urban forestry myths - no.1


Vince "Vince Carter" Carter, Regional Forestry Strategy Manger, sold a double 99 with sprinkles to Brian Moseley just before he was famously thrown off the multi-storey car park in Gateshead by Michael Caine in one of Get Carter`s iconic scenes.



Vince remembers:"He was a very nice man and I had a holiday job with me dad selling ice creams to the cast and crew and this big, fat bloke walked over and bought a 99 with 2 flakes and sprinkles and gave me an extra bob (5p) and I didn`t see him after that. I don`t think they really threw him off the car park because he turned up as Alf Roberts in Corrie. I think they threw one of me dad`s cousins off instead who needed the money."
