Fatality in Kent yesterday.

[Mark Bolam]

Older guy with Polish worker apparently. HSE on site muttering about lack of relevant qualifications. Landowner up the creek, looks like.

What a terrible thing, whatever the reasons behind it.

[treebloke]

Has there been anything in the news, any idea what the local paper is.

[Mark Bolam]

Nowt down here yet.

 

Bloody tragic whatever happened.

[western]

s**t that is bad news, feel sorry for his family

[felixthelogchopper]

Always a sad day when something like this happens

[Tommy_B]

Sounds awful. Really really not good.

[Peter]

Landowner up the creek, looks like.

 

I hope he gets prosecuted. There is no excuse for employing someone with no training and no experience to do a hazardous job.

[AA Teccie (Paul)]

Perhaps I'm naive, and un realistic, but I find it quite staggering to hear news like this in this day, age and current H&S driven climate..!'madness'!!!

 

Sincere condolences to the family left behind.

[Mark Bolam]

From what my mate said, H&S hadn't figured too highly in the game plan.

 

Over a dozen medium sized trees hung up, not a gob in sight, attempting to fell another tree under a hung up one?

 

I'd love to know the full story. Or maybe I wouldn't.

 

I'm off to bed. I'll try not to have nightmares.
