The driftwood tree is going to be a project for spring, I reckon. All the pieces are slotted behind radiators, so each time we have heating on, it'll help them dry thoroughly. Once we get to spring they should be fully dried, and I'll start drilling holes through them and arranging them onto a central rod. Need to find a nice solid round log to use as a base too! 

Heh you said rod

I think it's a great idea, I want to see pics of the finished tree! Only if you're happy with it though!

Yes, cheers, just chilling and watching the space malarkies, then picking up the family from their shopping. Thurlow, it's a sad state of public transport to say that Tim Peake and you set off at the same time this morning, yet he got to his destination first.....
