    Default Scottish timber

    I am importing Scottish oak and elm from Mary Queen of Scots estates, planted by the same person that planted Kew gardens in London. All timber comes with Providence and history of estate. Ian looking for interested people and businesses to buy/ sell the timber. The timber is top grade and I will have slabs up to 4m *1.5m as well as flooring and everything in between. . Please get in touch if interested

    Considering this person only revisited the forums once, around a day after posting this "for sale" advertisement, I wouldn't hold my breath for a reply.

    Call me a sceptical old codger, but this ad smelled very much like fish when I first saw it, and given the lack of activity/check up since, the smell is getting stronger... one has to wonder what document would be produced that contained any third party/authoritative veracity in the "comes with Providence and history of estate" claim.

    Again, call me a sceptical old codger if you will.

    Mary Queen of Scots Estates is a very esoteric term

    I likewise was suss when it came up back in july and I guess everyone else was too going by the lack of response. Figured when Log Dog asked for picks it was time to see if we were in for a show. Being Scots and a bit of a history buff I dont think I could point out on a map just where Mary Queen of Scots estates actually is. Anyhow I think its time Log Dog got a promotion to forum guard dog. He has sniffed out a few baduns this last couple of weeks.

    I know this is an "old" post but it's not 'providence'! The correct term is 'provenance". Another nail in the coffin for the post.
    If you never made a mistake, you never made anything!
