R.Rose - OH thinks that the oak for modern furniture comes mainly from Romania or France. France has large oak forests, and Romania's warmer than UK climate means the trees grow faster to a useful size.

Well, that's his theory! ;-)

Rose are you sure that the Oak is ONE piece?

we have an Oak suite that is not a solid lump,
It can be very carefully cut and planed and re joined to form bigger pieces,

Apparently the Labour Gov. were aware of this disease some four years ago but chose to ignore the warnings.

It's the JS/BBC syndrome - see nothing; hear nothing & do nothing.

This Government will never run out of mistakes to admit to.

It has taken this lot 2 years to decide they will issue a warning.

We need to get out of the EU & ditch this Free Trade Policy. Though perhaps this ban on importing ash saplings will be a tiny step towards this.
