Very cool Sean! Yew was very highly prized in Medieval times for making longbows for archery. You were probably aware of that though.

Yes, I know of a few people who are looking for the perfect branch to make a longbow.
I was also told it was used to store wine in. Until I the alcohol absorbed the toxins and killed a few people when they drunk the wine..but it’s history and the truth maybe a bit clouded.
here’s a ref to the info. However the heartwood has less toxins then the bark or the leaves

Glad it's there instead of here. How do you grow olives in that s-word?

That’s one of the trees that can’t quite make it here. If you drop down several hundred feet in elevation the olives start though. You can drive 15 minutes in any direction and totally change environment.

Ok, you are up in the mountains, makes sense now. When I think of Greece, I think Mediterranean and olives. Love me some Greek olives.

You should try some Greek olive oil. Like, straight from the farmer...

Mornins'. Went back to the newtome Mexican joint last night. Had an OK garlic shrimp deal. Got the burrito that brought me back there to go for lunch today.
Have a good one boys and keep the rubber side down.

I wish I could get it straight from a farmer, but my climate dictates I have to buy in a store. I like the oil almost as much as the olives, then there is the feta, making myself hungry now. I got to get some breakfast, at least I have fresh eggs.

You are new, and don't have a full grasp of @cuinrearview speak yet.....@AlfA01 sends oil to the crew. You too can get amongst when the time comes for cents on the dollar.

Good morning sack scratchers. Is it Friday yet?

I will gladly pay for some imported direct olive oil. That would be fantastic. Will definitely be paying attention. Thanks for the heads up.

Morning guys.
Got a few more hours of what seems to be amounting to "how to disconnect wiring connectors on an electric car" class and then I get to point it north and floor it.
