old wound, double bottleneck, ok?

[treemeup]

I've just been sent a photo and thought I'd share it as it's quite an interesting one, the wound has been there for 27 years and gets a bit bigger every year, the limb has a double bottleneck which would be the worrying point imo, I'm probably gonna reduce/thin a little to reduce the sail/movement (if it's needed) so long as there are no fung, goes to show how long things can last!

 

has anyone ever done a limb wobble test? (tie a rope on to the limb and give it a shake while watching the fork/worrying area?)
