It was not that bad, customer was between having Portuguese laurel or yew and when i priced it up only about £200 in it.

Customer did get a bit worried when we turned up with digger to trench ground I knew property and there was old road under part of ground were it had to go.

I do like a good yew hedge. Maybe we need a new thread on here, "show us your yew hedge"...... Probably some corkers out there.

Spent 3 peaceful and rewarding days removing Willow saplings from a stream bed. Just two of us, waders and chains with Thom using the crane.

Really enjoyed being down in the water, Ducks watching with interest and lots of minnows round my feet. Added a few members to the Valtra fan club as well.

Messy windblown pop today that had hung up on a stand of lime and took out a sweet chestnut into the mix aswell, nice compression and tension jenga to puzzle to work out

Local authority work prepping for fibre optic cables.

Siding whatever is marked pink for 'fck up' or orange for council workers firewood pool.

 Then later in the week repollarding 8 limes in Fougeres

Nothing exciting but easy and profitable.

Frankly, I'd rather a decent days take down than hours of bob bobbing for bamboo sized canes of lime, murder on the legs and shoulders picking all that McShit up.
