by Ian Rodger
" The woods even in the intense cold and semi-darkness of a Swedish winter looked very beautiful: when the sun eventually came up-it shines rather like candlelight at that time of the year -its pale light peered at us through the snow-covered trees.'
Ian Rodger talks about a day he spent felling trees in a Swedish forest.
