the 'todays job' thread

[Spruce Pirate]

Not so much today's job as this week's job. Off-rooting for the harvester. Would have been beautiful timber if it'd stayed on it's feet.

And a few pics from today.

Tree clearing on a Sunday, you must be busy Ian.

Chestnut removal in Thursday last week. Single stemmed tree which was nice for a change. So long extended laterals so we decided to rig it down to save the walls and garden. Unfortunately didn't get any off the tree or the rigging of brash as we were a man down.

 

The boss man managed to get a couple during the process of rigging the stem. We left it at the height in the last pic and a Hiab is due there next week.

Ooops....!

Yeah, and for the next few weekends. Only because I won a huge council contract and it's caused one severe headache trying to complete it and do some smaller clearances. I've promised if we get it all done by the second week of Christmas I will give them 2 weeks paid to sit at home (they all take 1 week anyway so that's 3 weeks off). All bar one are working like the hulk to get it done.

If I was employed I'd pull hard (add your own joke) for a bloke that was going to pay me three weeks money to sit at home over Christmas.

 

Good skills Ian.

Cheers eggs, they are in fact doing me a huge favour, granted they get double pay on a Sunday I'm still making better money so I guess it's owed from my point of view, worked for a guy once who always tried to give you days in lieu. Never really liked it like that.
