Come on then.....who was it?

 

Express.co.uk - Home of the Daily and Sunday Express | UK News :: Cars wrecked by bungling tree surgeon

[Rupe]

Good find!! I'm going to clear up the mess and finish the job tomorrow!!

 

I'll take some pics, its all a bit of a bad shame on the industry TBH, but we'll try and

sorten it out.

[Rupe]

BTW, there is a lot more to the story than meets the eye! Don't believe a word the papers say!!

[Rupe]

That all sounds wrong!! NO, I'm not the original culprit!

[Ben90]

Ohh, so it was the pap taking pictures of me, I thought it was just bystanders wanting to immortalise how great I am! Bloody cars getting in the way when I'm trying to work on a pine tree...

A customer yesterday was telling me of this, have to say it seems a little odd was it a case of a tree surgeon finally losing it with joe public who choose to ignore any signs barriers in place whist tree work is happeing and thinking i'll show them i have felt like doing similar on occasions, however to actually go though with it...................................

Thats a bit more like the truth I think. Apparantly the car got parked between the work vehicles by squeezing between the cones while work was already started.

 

Still no excuse!! It was a landscaper with a cherry picker, not a tree surgeon. Annoyingly the paper still refers to him as a tree specialist!

 

I'll take photos of the mess today.

Also, this in today's Telegraph in Poole:

 

Protected pine trees killed near exclusive development site - Telegraph

 

doesn't do the industry a lot of favours:

 

"The attack was done by somebody who knew what they were doing or had taken advice. "
