We face the biggest risk here of any circuit we race on. The danger isn't so much hitting the tyre barriers as hitting another car that has already spun.

The trees are many times larger and they were uprooted and toppled, blocking off roads. The girth, if you will, of some of these trees is very significant.

The trees can go pretty high instead of going to the sky, ... We could easily do another six months of bull market if conditions don't become too excessive and the Fed doesn't become too tight. The issue is how rapid they tighten. If they start doing a quarter-point every six weeks, that's fast. If it's a quarter-point and then nothing for six months that's fine. We can live with that.

Beaumont-Hamel sits within a thousand acres of French agriculture. The trenches are under this blanket of grass. In the 1920s, a park was established here and trees from Newfoundland imported to encircle the battlefield so you get the feeling of being within a copse of woods.

Beauty is an all-pervading presence. It unfolds to the numberless flowers of the Spring; it waves in the branches of the trees and in the green blades of grass; it haunts the depths of the earth and the sea, and gleams out in the hues of the shell and the precious stone. And not only these minute objects, but the ocean, the mountains, the clouds, the heavens, the stars, the rising and the setting sun all overflow with beauty. The universe is its temple; and those people who are alive to it can not lift their eyes without feeling themselves encompassed with it on every side.

When you look at the footage, even where the eye hit, what do you see? Complete destruction. Everything's piled up against trees.

The woods were wild at nightfall.

The more often I came home, the more trees were gone. It was like my childhood was being eviscerated. There was another OfficeMax or Wal-Mart. ?This is not my home,? I said. I felt in my heart the loss of Turkey Creek. But I think a more dangerous issue is the displacement of our culture.

A woodland setting is often a very suitable place for good plant growth, as there is wind protection from the trees and the sun's warmth is concentrated in the humus-rich leaf-mould litter covering the ground.

You only need to think of the snowdrops, bluebells or primroses that thrive in these conditions in nature to get an idea of what you could achieve in your own garden.
