Wee job this morning.

In stark contrast to don monstering massive tonnages of trees to death eight days a week, I've recently been very much enjoying little gardening oddments. First time stump grinding in about fifteen years today. Lovely little machine with new teeth and had the staff chasing roots out. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sailor slips into the minimum wage bracket.

For U16’s.

 

Invoice - staff, £240.

He's not that useful. Also frankly a liability when you're swinging hand tools.

 

Haven't had a wages thread for a few weeks have we.

Tricky one today, but managed to get this one down eventually.

5 points for ingenuity, 0 points for tree felling.

 

I can't see how it didn't fall of it's own accord anyway, it looks like he's nibbled all the way around it already.

I want to be charitable and say he's cleaning up beaver damage, but I don't think that's the case.

Well, Saturday, bit of firewood, also got to play with new (to me) 462, and yeh, i likes 😍

This was this mornings first job only a couple of hours. 

 

Another fiddly, challenging yet fun jobs. 

 

Here is before 

 

And after 

 

 

 

Skinny skinny 

 

 

 

Truth is I thoroughly enjoy the challenge.

Squat but chunky Corsican fell today.

Just me and the Worky Quad.

Twin stemmed, about 20” dia at felling points, stump left high to wrestle out with a 13 tonner.

The building is being demolished and replaced.

 

A fair bit of logistical juggling with two machines, 2 loads of chip and 2 heavy, but home by 4 in time to walk the dogs.

Parasol pine perhaps?
