Today was day 3, just raking up and ensuring the timber lorry got loaded ok.

Day 1, stripped and chipped 4 of the 7.

Day 2, did the other 3, felled the butts.

Looks like about 1976 I would say 🙂

That’s a very decent timber lorry, and an extremely tight fisted owner operator who..

A. Detests breaking anything which will cost him money.

B. Leaving any wood at all that he can make money on.

C. Paying anything for the wood he collects.

Flipside is he will come when he says he will.

Here he is getting the biggest lump close enough to load, carefully placing it on the bed of the truck, then moving the grab into the COG to get it up in the air (not recorded)

Me pacing around anxiously worrying about fixing broken concrete posts etc.

Mint truck, mint driver.
Could you have made his life easier and reduced your stress levels by Multioneing the butts closer to where he was going to load though?

We did, but that particular one was too much for the loader, so we used chains to get it close enough, documented by Dave here..
