I sent an email to the Woodland Trust a coule of weeks ago regarding the plaque. I received an automated reply saying they would get back to me. Apparently they are pretty busy with some tree dieback disease at the moment.

Tony, I'm a member of a local volunteer group that helps maintain a WT woodland in Norfolk. The WT are very slow to respond to queries but they are usually very good at getting back to you eventually. Ash dieback has caused them a lot of problems, all our volunteer coppicing has been postponed until a strategy is developed to deal with the disease.

I'd suggest following up your email every couple of weeks with another, or even send an old-fashioned letter.

Just joined after reading the Heathrow thread. I live in Heston and have been photographing aircraft at LHR for years. I have recently become interested in the history of the airport and have been to see the old tower demolition virtually every day to record the event!

Sure. Let me know what you want to see.

Thanks Alastair. I actually received an email from the WT just yesterday. They are shorthanded at the moment but indicated that they may have something for me in a week. Will let you know the outcome.

Cheers
Tony

Hello LHR and welcome !

Hi LHR welcome to the forum plenty on here to interest you . Like you i have a love of Heathrow i first visited the airport way back in 1958 when you could have a silver service dinner in the Queens building . There used to be a model shop on the balcony where i bought a Revel B47Strato jet . Do you have the DVD on the history of Heathrow its brilliant . When we fly from Heathrow we always stay in the Hiliday Inn on Bath road & have room on the third floor so i get agood view of aircraft taking off & landing Magic.
