Unusual or Off the Wall Tree Work

[Stubby]

Went to cut a hedge and ended up dismantling a piano to get it out of the house and taking it to the tip ..

I had to remove some self set buddleia and other small seedlings from the outside of a bridge wall last year. Was an interesting one. Some funny looks from passers by watching me climb over the wall!

Silver leafed a 120' black pine for an artist, transplanted a cherry tree and the box of ashes that were under it, sectioned loads of Bt poles, stuck plastic owls up trees , removed big swings on trees that would of taken a team of climbers to install and I bet it was a 10 year old kid!

Not trees but not the usual

Pulled out a car out an old sand quarry for a murder investigation, rescued the bomb squad twice in their bogged pinzenguar with my Mog

Took a beech down and had to save a signature that a chaps son had carved in it as a boy, it turned out that he had died and his dad didnt want to see his sons initials logged up and burnt.

went to take down a couple of small trees around a pond as the roots were going into the liner and ended up emptying the pond and cleaning it out 120 thousand gallons with a 10 foot island in the middle 3 days to do it nice weather and we had fun doing it, mate went to clean himself off in the river next to the garden in his waders bent down and his waders filled with water, wish I had my camera as it was a you've been framed moment.Made a nice change from tree work once you got used to the smell of the crap in the bottom

Beeing paid not to work by the BBC on two occasions. Having to sort out a tree a guy had shot himself against the day before whilst playing Russian roulette. The police had made a bit of a mess digging the bullet out.

Not really a tree job but myself and Mick Stockbridge, once cut up a Sperm Whale that had died and been dragged ashore for the autopsy.

Fruity wasn't really a word used on the day. It was pretty rank though.
