ouch! scoff a few clarytins!

Lagers working fine ta. I'll not be beaten by a tree

That's what sleeves are for

or a can of petrol

God Mr.Whippy, you're soooo efficient.

When I last cut down a conifer my arms were covered in weals like that - I think it's something in the resins/oils that give them their distinctive smell.

They go away quite quickly though...

Happened to me too. As said - must be the oils etc. Not nice but not permanent.

Yup me too!

Deffo the resins in it too!

Showering or bathing after doing the gardening....read conifers.........really aggravates it too.....
