Nice looking finish on what looks like a pig of a job.

 

Joy of really big hedges as a few inches out just won't be seen.

Had to assess the damage caused by a fire engine crashing through some willow pollards.

How on earth did he manage that!

It's willow, it'll grow back just fine 😕

On a call, wheel caught the extremely soft verge, full of water, already too late by then.

 

Got to clean up and stick some branches in the ground to see if they take.

Nasty, hope they all got out ok.

Today we had to reduce the overhang back from these commercial units. The two apprentices did all the deadwood and I did all the rigging over the buildings.

Removing this radiata today.

Previously attempted by a local lone working climber who made half a dozen cuts before having a stroke whilst in the tree. He managed to get himself down thankfully before one side of his body froze up but will never work again at 52 years of age.

12m cube of chip and 3m cube of rakings mostly clusters of pine cones too awkward to feed into the Quadchip.

Once again our JD1026 came into it's own as a brash dragger and log mover.

Cleared and replanted the damage from the crash this morning.
