The cobblers kids never have new shoes

This Elm has been dead for years and on my list of things to do around the house for about four years,anyway last night the wind beat me to it.

Sorry the pic's are a bit crap.

It had gone across the drive and was resting a Beech,it was also pulling two phone lines.

I put the crane up and put a sling round to take as much weight as i could,then roped in to the Beech on the right and dismantled the crown.

Took the radio control up with me,it has a load indicator on it so i could check if it was starting to go.I was on my own so the are no pic's of it coming down,the wife kept checking on me.

Only took a few pic's,as part way though got a call from a customer who had a tree on there drive and were going on holiday,so i had to rush to get mine done and go and clear theres.
