It's been mentioned to me that people might like to know what the prize is as an incentive to enter. ..

Well I'll say for now there will be a knife handled by our very own John Fenna (over 18's only) and a DD hammock. What else will be in with them I don't know until I have a rummage round :)

There might be :rolleyes:

I think from tomorrow what I'll do is if someone lists a tree that is one of the barks but hasn't got it in the right place I'll start saying x trees correctly identified and x trees identified but not correctly placed
