But you can fell the stem?

 

Hehe, you crack me up Mark ?

 

Also how old are you? I hope at least 50 or better still 60?

Was the spinning missile from the poorly stacked land pile not an issue for the  "bit of pottery  an some stone things"?

OK I'll let you off at 65, but I intend to still be doing the big stuff at that age, time will tell, get back to me in 15 years ?

 

As for 100's of K, how many teams do you have? I've been at it for 25+years, reckon I'm only in my 10's of K at best, don't reckon I'll ever get into 100's of K, thats a pretty big number

Those are fare questions!

the amount we felled—- I started felling due to Elm disease killing millions of trees in the West Country, went on clearing rail way trees, hospital grounds ect ect parks department private stuff I could go on! 

I don’t have a team now you lose the appetite for red tape and stuff! 

Hey we’re on the same side! I love what you guys do! Us old uns deserve a bit of respect to ya’know.
