>>470894SHEEE-IT it must be cold there!
I live in the sub-tropics ; Queensland - where the bananas grow ; Chuck the skins in the forest - invisible within 2 weeks even in the "winter" that we have here. . . .
EVERYthing breaks-down here - you leave a Bamboo Ruler in the bush here it will be rather fucked in a year!
National-Park buildings here use No Pine ever ; Galvanized steel about the concrete footings . ..
I was astonished when I went to Tasmania [perhaps a climate like Scotland] and saw Pine Duck-boards in the alpine meadows , and pine structures like toilets and stairs TOUCHING THE GROUND!
"H3" treated pine lasts 10years in the AIR in Queensland - you know : a Balcony hand-rail lasts 10years : Nobody uses pine because it will rot.
Perhaps those hikers in Scotland think - I mean truly believe - the Banana Peels will rot ; that is the experience of Many people from more moderate climates.
