the 'todays job' thread

[Mick Dempsey]

Nothing too noteworthy, a horrible acacia to re-top over some cables and stuff and  couple of oaks to dismantle. 

But……today is my 60th birthday!

 

So next time some 28 year old starts moaning about how arb is destroying their body etc. 
Point out how to the callow youths how (after nearly thirty years) I am still a Greek god of a man, body like sculpted marble, agile, strong like lion, fearless and skilled!
Anyway a good day was had, happy to be above ground and still on the job.

Happy 60th birthday Mick. I celebrated my 60th four years ago by making sure I did a climbing job on the day. Don't envy you all those hidden spikey bits on the Acacia.

Fair play Mick!

Use it or lose it!

And Joyeux Anniversaire!

Happy Birthday Mick, although It’s all down hill from now, all you have to look forward to now is sickness and purgatory. 👍

Happy Birthday Mick, fare play at 60!

The forgotten back corner of the garden is like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're going to get. 

 

 

 

Ah right, an embedded Christmas tree stand.

Might leave this stump a bit higher then.

Very light reduction and thin on this lovely Copper Beech.

 

Glad this one has a TPO as given the chance the residence would have it felled.
