Bureaucracy gone mad once again! I heard a lovely quote recently: there should be less red tape in our lives, and more red elastic (in other words, the rules should be able to be tweaked to accommodate special circumstances like this. God give us all strength! I get my (free) firewood from a busy joinery factory- I go in once a week and help myself, after reporting to the foreman. I asked him a while ago, if I should wear a hi-viz vest, safety boots and a helmet as the factory is full of hazardous machinery- his reply: "nah mate, you look like a sensible sort of bloke"!
