Well done Adam, looked an awkward climb

 

 

I thought that and took the managerial decision to let Adam do it and tell him I had a nice apple tree for him to reduce. Works every time.

Ivy choked ash, going to see how it does this summer (customer said it didn't look too good last year) and it may get a light reduction as it's over three boundaries, by the railway line, over 2 sheds with a summer house goin up directly beneath it. Orrible to do but satisfying pulling big slabs of ivy off main trunk![ATTACH]179136[/ATTACH][ATTACH]179137[/ATTACH][ATTACH]179138[/ATTACH][ATTACH]179139[/ATTACH]

 

Looks a lot better now, lots of dust, coughing and runny eyes I fear

Thanks mate. It was a horrible climb mate. Just kept telling myself to slow down and think a little. Couple of really lateral limbs caught me out with the angles but a little branch humping and I was away

Oh And I bought you an epic sausage roll because I felt guilty.

That was an epic sausage role. In fact that was probably the best sausage role I've ever had.
