Cheers. One of those pics is actually Ed climbing, we had a bit of a contest going to see who could knock off the biggest chunk, which ended up with us spiking up 4 metres and felling whole trees. Great fun!

we did a job where we ended up dragging a council bin over and 084ing off that. those spikes can be tricky lol.

I think we must have went to the same school of tree cutting. he he:001_smile:
