"....but its not any worse than anything else man inflicts on trees."

Being the cynnical old git I am Andy, I hardly dare to imagine this is anywhere near the truth . Ho hum.

Still dont know if its going to happen, the Landscape Architect was supposed to meet on site on Saturday, but didnt show. Knowing the area where the tree is situated will have some sort of work done, I "crown-cleaned" the tree so I could assess it better, and also the mess is out of the way before the landscapers move in. Also top-dressed the root area with soil improver to give it a bit of a feed up. Now I just have to wait for the Landscapers decision.

I have a lovely book by Jake hobson, 'NIWAKI, Pruning, Training & Shaping Trees the Japanese Way'. It's a lovely art form. Google NIWAKI to see Jakes work.
