Easy life. 

Took a bucket of topsoil when I went to collect the digger. Finishing touches…

 

You can see the swept lines from the bucket brush on the left hand side by the hedge 🤣

Bucket brush is magic for clearing the stump so you can see where to cut. Did a bloody brilliant final clear up too, but didn’t get photo of that so just trust me 🤣

 

All back to the yard for two. Just me on site grinding the stump, clearing all arising and sweeping up, Harry has been flat out hauling timber and machines. 

The house looks familiar . Might have worked there in the past . Do they have an yew hedging ?

bit of a mixed bag of work recently.

Bit of mulching to finish off a little clearance job. a 30m dead scotspine which we took down with a 35m hoist and roto for the timber under 25m. sugar maple removal with the roto and a fair reach into a garden and a fiddly little oak reduction that we’ve done every 3 years since 2011ish

Oak pollard today, I'm just the climber.  

 

I'm anti lopping a topping, i don't really like pollards but this tree I'd happily cut in half it adds very little value.

Pine TD in Angoulême.

If we could have done it in one we would have.

Went sweet as you like.

Turned up to this horrible thing today. I expressed my displeasure by doing 3 phone lines and a drain cover.

I recently commissioned a pick riding pic just for you, Joe.

If you put your fag down your cutting and holding technique would probably improve.
