Because of the dry summer the plane trees dropped most of their bark. I could have filled my sitting room with black bin bags full of the bark. However, I only collected two carrier bags full.
Despite the problems I would have had storing it, I wish I had collected more. It makes such marvellous fire-lighters, whether starting the fire or when I've left the fire too long and it's mainly red ash and needs firing up again.
