Final logging day this year

It feels quite cold this morning and its looking likely that it will be my last day up at the logging camp this year.  In the last week i had felled all the trees/bushes i promised and have spent a couple of days dragging most of them them into a couple of piles where they will be burned after next years bird nesting period.

So today looks like a couple of hours work recovering a some wood from the few trees that are left and take a few pics to show the "after" result.

I stumbled over the following group of common ink caps yesterday, very nice example.

On Sunday we signed up for Sky broadband and phone calls and are now eagerly awaiting the router to complete the setup.  For years now we have been with BT for phone and a local wireless network, W3Z for the internet.  The reason for the change is really the internet bit we were promised a superfast link last year but its failed to materialise as we are out of site of the updated relay station?!  Anyway as well as the broadband link it will cut down on our phone bill.

On Sunday We also went to Hardwick Hall to look for mushrooms, its kind of a tradition that we take a walk there every October as one year we went on an organised foray and found loads.  Unfortunately the fayre was meagre as it has been for a few years.  Its a nice park as can be seen from the pic below, spoiled only by the roar of the M1 the other side of the trees in the pic
