Is that the lithgows oak ? Looked pretty good in the flesh but didn't pay it much attention as it wouldn't fit in my car.

Thanks for the heads up,.

Nope this was in a local paper i think the lithgows oak looked cleaner than mine Thanks for your reply Cheers Dave

At a timber yard your £95 would have got you roughly two cubic feet of oak, you'd still have had to deal with shakes and knots. I bet you've done a lot better than that!
