We have birch, chestnut, maple, prunus and acer all in (or overhanging) a smallish garden. I love the trees and would never get rid of a single one, but the leaves are a menace! <BR/><BR/>We can't keep a compost heap because each time we've tried we've ended up with rodents breeding in them. Not good to lift the lid and find a family of baby rats!!Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00496924033221866102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3187771612161570403.post-16106760103247647702008-10-31T00:06:00.000+00:002008-10-31T00:06:00.000+00:00My Mac and he must be brothers.

My husband gets away from the farm so rarely that he gets excited by a trip to the supermarket and talks to the checkout girls (constantly) which confuses them and embarrasses me!
