150 Year Old Oak Tree for Sale (no TPO)

[Kveldssanger]

The buggars not far from me . My first thought was to fell it on his house and run off . The tree itself looks in a fair condition considering its age and size . The local T.P.O Officer is switched on .....lets hope this post encourages another old Oak to thrive .

 

Email the TO and mark it as urgent? Save the ebay page as well, in case they pull it.

I am looking at the listing and I notice a few odd things:

 

In the description it says "slight deterioration to part of bole and one branch", but then later on says "this tree has been classified as in need of major surgery and dangerous". What one is it? If it's only got slight deterioration, how can it be in need of major surgery and be deemed dangerous?

 

"We have taken the difficult decision to remove the 150 Year (Professional Estimate)Old Tree". Difficult enough to put it up for auction! Such tact.

 

"There is some decay to the bole and one of the larger branches which has led to us taking the safety decision to remove." As above.

Very valid points ... I will try to build on them . Just going to drop a line to one of the councils tree lads . He loves his old / veteran tree,s .....fingers crossed

I think he/they got some witty replies and can see the funny side.

At over 2300 views on eBay, I'm not surprised he got some funny replies....

They are just asking for quotes albeit exceptionally poorly worded.

 

This listing on the other hand....
