Maybe not the reason here but loads of trees have had to be cut down in France because of the various diseases that seem to affect several different species. When we were there a month or so back it was really sad to see so many trees still standing that were either dying or had brown leaves over large areas.

Yes, it was a tragedy that all the magnificent plane trees had to be cut down along the Canal du MIDI

I don't believe they have all gone. Where they've been removed trees have been replanted.

I have noticed many trees in parks here all marked and numbered to be cut because of diseases, watch out anyone with a wooden leg.

Lovely to see an old Dutch barge still in commission.

Well their all gone at Artaix and No attemp to even clean up the mess of their removal has been made they may intend to replant but the trouble with replanting trees is the length of time they take to grow

This was ours, but 8 years passed now since we sold her. I often wonder where she is and in what state, without constant maintenance they go downhill quickly…

Thanks Tom.

Most informative and having seen this operation under way in the past it's good to know how extensive the programme is.
