Just wish it wasn't the opposite end of the country to me! I tried some willow 'sculptures' (a tunnel and a bower) for our chickens. They look OK except the willow I used is not sprouting (it was our own off cuts from pollarding willows) so now I've got to start all over - could do with learning how to do it properly!
