None of the following are my fault....I just happened to be there at the time and it should be remembered that a man who never makes mistakes never does anything!

 

Big elm down side of house; winchman's fault, big beech straight up middle of road; winchman again, willow through 11kv; fallers fault, beech branch bridging three phases, gas main ripped up with Becker, french windows stump grinding and other less important things in the course of thirty two years.

 

Bad ain't I:001_smile:

The odd cracked flag and the odd holed fence panel.

 

I'm better at damaging myself then other peoples property.:laugh1:

 

4 Cuts with the chainsaw 2 requiring surgery all leaving nastyish scars.

Also broken a few ribs once while freeclimbing to pull out a hanger I had left:blushing:

 

Oh and a few cables with the stumpy all CATV except one armoured cable buried 0.5mm below the soil:sneaky2: still my fault though.:laugh1:

Ive kicked the head off many a gnome :lol: . I got confused years ago static / dynamic and ended up with a dynamic lowering rope which helped a small piece of oak punch a hole through a shed roof 7 times . Mind you each time it hit home the hole just got bigger . Broke a greenhouse window :biggrin: Not bad for over 17yrs .
