Hats off to all climbers

[Lazurus]

I had a local arborist round on Friday to remove two leylandi, a 20` and a 30`, both in an awkward site with a very small drop zone and several awkward BT line and other obstacles . I was the brash monkey but admit I spent a lot of my time just watching this guy at work.

 

Now I had kept him fed and watered and copious cups of tea before he climbed, he must have the strength of Hercules and the bladder of an African bull elephant as it was and hour and 50 till he finished the first and reached the floor. I know it was only a smallish job but he was meticulous, very safety conscious and a nice guy to. A real credit to the profession, so hats off to you guys, a nice office but bl00dy hard graft.

 

Also got to help feed the Timberwolf, what a great bit of kit, was surprised at how quick the brash was dealt with, would have taken me a fortnight of bonfire's to get rid, he even cleared up with a blower at the end of the job.

Nice thought but tell me that again on a cold wet January Monday, dragging brash in a dog turd infested council estate

Well, as a climber I say, thank you for your kind words.

No rescue climber then? Tsk, tsk.

Best thing you can do is tell others how happy you were with him and his professionalism,maybe get him some more work.
