Well, technically it is but we still say 4x2 or 8x4 feet
It's 100 x 50 mm it's strange, ply is 8ft x 4 ft yet plasterboard is 2.4x1.2 in metric which is smaller. Maybe we import ply from you?

Yes, and they still need extra crew, but 12 hour days and 2 - 3 hours of travel time is a little too much.

Not been up that way for years, Scotland still has some nice forests, we have one about 40 miles away, Thetford forest. Lakenheath and Mildenhall are there.

The country was covered in big oak trees to, but not so much now as they are so slow growing. shame. All the houses used them from the old days.

That's a shame Eric. Maybe that's part of the reason for so much destructive weather, Mother Nature's fighting back.

There is a pub in a village not far from me that was built from the oak timber houses that were destroyed in the great fire of London back in 1666.

Well, much of the brick housing in the Sheffield area came up from when the industrial revolution started. you must of heard of Sheffield stainless steel? That was a big steel industry area plus coal mining,
Hence the brick work looks dirty from the soot
