A second chance.

She was allowed out at the end, she was right into the long grass around the base! It was nice and long dry stuff where the sheep couldn't eat it!:biggrin:I did the international command to a Jack Russell of ' where's the mices, where's the mices, go on go on go on, ska ska ska!!!!!!!!!!!!!:lol:Her head disappeared and her we bum was in the air and her tail was going mad:thumbup:

She also had a lovely new pink collar that I didn't let the big tough farmer away with:laugh1:

 

haha, yeah its great having dogs on the job with you alright.

My border is too timid now , she's not been right since we lost the old fox terrier!

I took her to work last week and she ended up on the rd, something she would never do.

And as for the German pointer, she's bananas in a good way!

A quick dress round the base and I'll rake it up properly when I shift the wood

Like that

 

 

Are you going to bother guying it?

Are there any real targets in and around the field?

HI STEPHEN nice job well done mate :thumbup1:jon

Good job! Whilst I might not previously have thought of that as an option, seeing it done means it can be considered in the future if a similar situation arises.

 

Whilst I wouldn't suggest a single example of success (If it works, and the tree comes back to vitality) could be taken as conclusive, but if it does, could it be considered as a challenge (perhaps a bit strong?) to the pollarding guidelines in 3998?

No targets except sheep!

Nice one. What about dropping a big lump of timber on the rootplate. May have been mentioned already as I've not read from the start.
