Worked for Mark Williams of fast show fame, was very tempted to say " oo does it suit you sir" but held my tongue. Worked on a property from grand designs aswell.

Also did a job next to a property owned by Nicholas van Hoogstraten and dragged brash onto his side :scared1:

Looking as awful as ever realy the customer and others around have said its been put on hold because of a row with contractors (realy realy glad im not them) all the scaafolding is still up and as regard to the footpath I have no idea dont think its any where near the woods we are in.

while working for bartlett in kent we met gary rhodes, the guy out of george and mildred, and my foreman ended his career ( in england anyway ) by felling the top out of a very dead, 40ft pine attempting to roll it off a smaller tree in an adjacent field to save DAVID STARKEY's lawn (that historian ) - any way, it sat back after touching the other tree ( no hinge ) and he took it on his wrist, smashed it . - not only this, but we also accidentaly broke an old bench whilst reducing some large beech, which his solicitor wrote to us about demanding 1200 notes! yeh, he was reimbursed.

 

ps - as the groundie that day, i told him it was dodge and said the lawn.......

always listen to your groundie..... unless hes wrong......
