Thats the way to do it Mac!:001_smile:

 

One of the last jobs I did when I was employed was a big beech takedown, rigged everything like that, some big bits too, from another tree with a huge limb overhanging the road, all straight into a trailer in the street which we kept backing underneath and pulling out the way again.

 

Felled the main stem straight down the tight driveway. Real nice job, all went perfect.

 

I got a phone call about three months later from a lady asking if it was my people who did the tree over the road, I didn't realise we were being watched.

 

I said yes it was me, but I no longer worked there and gave her the contact details of my old boss.

 

I heard back from her a couple of days later and she asked me to come and see her, as she was only interested in the people who had carried out the work she had watched and wasn't bothered who's name was on the van.

 

What had mainly impressed her was the fact that a few flowers wern't damaged and that we had left the garden and street spotless.

 

We got a small days work off her as a trial, which in turn led to about ten weeks work over three years!:001_cool:
