Hi all ,
         I must admit that the petition is not gaining the numbers that I thought it would. Can I ask those of you that use other forums to go on and mention it please? But we still have a year to run.
Regards
John BHT

Hi John,
Well done for pointing out that signing the petition needs the email adress to be confirmed, but the link you referred to only applies to your own email address. It won't work for anyone else. They will have to look for their own personalised link in their own emails, and use that to confirm their address. It's a very easy process, but necessary to prevent unauthorised use of email addresses.
Hope that helps,
By the way, I will be putting a link to this post in our club's newsletter to try and increase the number of signatories. And hopefully the AWGB will be highlighting this at the Harrogate show.
Regards,
Derwent Woodturning Club

Hi Paul,   I'd posted the whole e-mail, so anyone could see as to what they should look for, as said I altered my details so as not to mislead I'd hoped.

How is the DWC coming along for membership.  Are you still running with the MSWA, I've not had the time to get to them recently ...   :-[ ...

Cheers   David

88 signed to date ....  the link: http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/41223  again should it have been missed in this thread.

Paul has said he has placed the link in the Clubs Newsletter, could other Clubs do the same, if not already done, Please.

I should think as that the AWGB has sent this to Club Secretaries, should any have missed this thread.

Thank You,

David

Hello All,
           I sent an email to the Forestry Commission asking them to clarify the situation regarding the use of Ash affected by Ash Dieback.
 Here is the reply that I received(in full)

The wood can still be used, but due to the restrictions on movement of ash, it cannot be moved from the site at which it was felled. As long as the wood you use is in timber form when you get it and have received it from someone with a license to move ash or from a pest-free area then there is no stopping you continuing using ash for woodturning.

Regards
John BHT
