I'm glad I opened this one, 

 

You decided to clear 11kv lines? 

You feel like following safe working practices is optional? 

You insinuate that others have ruined the tree industry? 

 

 

Yes the 11kv needed clearing.

Contract company had booked it clear and been paid according to the engineer.

So I cut it clear for them using approved techniques and equipment

 

The state of tree cutting in this country is bad because people are pulling the health and safety card in an attempt to get more money.

It's just a power line so just as much as a hazard as anything else that poses a risk of causing injury or collateral damage to equipment or persons completing the cutting job.

 

Tree cutters in this country are poor at the moment and the skills are as a result of private training company's charging a huge amount for old rope.

 

Shame as the UK tree work used to be very good .

To be fair, he is quite entertaining, and the portfolio of subjects that he contributes to is wide and varied. Unlike other trolls on here.

I'm not going to argue, having grown up next to Coventry. But it has improved a good bit the last couple of decades, it's not like it was in the 80s and 90s.
