Mick was an hour earlier than you and there wasn’t a worm to be seen.

Wordle 1,543 3/6 🟨⬜🟩⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Morning, first frost here this morning, -1 in places. Blue sky all round and a day in the digger after a 13 hour shift yesterday driving and Robo on steep ground so be good to get a seat.

Staged reduction is pretty pointless. If you have fully desiccated soil on shrinkable clay with a high PI, the soil will eventually return to it’s original volume whether the trees are removed in stages or in one hit. Or get chalara and die. Was the house there before the trees? Are the foundations substantial enough? Only a full structural engineers report will tell you. In our current climate we seem to get bone dry summers followed by months of flood. The soil is expanding and contracting with or without trees. Hopefully the report will indicate that they can be removed without problems, they look awful.

Morning all, Mewp job this morning getting a hung up oak branch off BT cables. Then finish one of yesterday’s hedges.

As above, neither of the creation scenarios make sense, nor does life springing up from primordial puddles and eventually making us???

Huge question in a small package. If you reduce it further you have to either pin your hopes on the strangest of things, either a universe that pops into existence from nothing with no way of us understanding why or a universe that pops into existence from nothing by way of an uncreated creator? Neither can be proven and are just taken on by faith.

Hi there, pretty new to all this and am wondering if anyone would have surplus logs that they need tipping in the forest area

Thank you Mick and Stubby. They were huge before this heavy cut. Overshadowing the whole garden. Grateful for your replies.

I'm 38 and I've started to forget my age.

Good Morning Good luck Pete. New site today in Berks . Onwards and upwards.

I’ll have a look later.

Good morning Arbtalkers 😊 Roll on the spring 😉

As above from Mick . Not big enough to worry about .

Brilliant ! 😃

Refreshing to see some DIY stuff rather than pink shiney shite from HB

Morning all . Clear sky again , cool start at 10c . Heating has come on ! .

Self sown undoubtedly. Ugly and I understand you wanting it out. Heave is a bit of a contentious subject here, many thinking it’s not really much of an issue, and that staged removals are a bit of a scam. These don’t look like much in all honesty, I suppose you could take them down in 2 further stages (the first heavy cut already been done) Trees die quite naturally near houses without buildings rising out of the soil like zombies or collapsing. If you’re really worried get a structural engineer to make a report, but expect to pay. From the pics. I’d cut them down without a seconds thought.

Awake too early to be fair, don't know why! Off to Groundsfest with a bunch of cards and also visiting a couple of businesses on the way. CV writing is a tad banal when you've done the same thing for 27 years! Then the printer decided to play up so not very well armed tbh! Dud, Lea, More.

And it's going to keep rocketing.
