IT'S getting harder to escape HOOF in the Forest of Dean as more people get involved in expressing themselves against a sell-off.

Foresters are rushing to adopt trees by tying yellow ribbons round them, HOOF and 'not for sale' boards are being placed in strategic locations – get them from The Forester office in Cinderford and Keith Morgan's Barber shop in Coleford.

HOOF have also been spreading the word with balloons and stickers.
