This tree is causing quite a stir

[Gardenmac]

This Connie was blown over last week. It's caused some serious damage to the house next door, the road, pavement and services. They have closed the road and now people are turning up from all over to take pics.

It was on the regional news tonight.

Got to love Conifers, people don't realise how shallow rooted they can be and when they get up close to being mature that they can act like a sail and catch the wind.

I'll give it a go, who do I invoice? On a serious note wouldn't a crane make job quite easy?

Probably Steve because its been like that for nearly a week, its on a busy road and has caused quite a bit of damage. But more likely people just being curious and want to get a picture with it as the novelty effect ripples out wards and word gets around.

Lady who owns the tree and lives next door to the one it's currently resting on said she was having difficulty with the Loss adjusters and insurance as to who is paying to sort it all.

Guy who lives in the house didn't want to comment tonight on the news.
