    Why climb such a tree when it can be felled? Infact why climb and dismantle any tree if it can be felled?

    At last someone who questions the picks. A couple looked a little sharp, especially the 2nd one. I'd have like to have step cut them and be well out of the way

    Pete Mctree replied to sanny's topic in The Lounge

    Seventh Trip, or Netzach (the SNAFU Principle) "The most thoroughly and relentlessly Damned, banned, excluded, condemned, forbidden, ostracized, ignore, suppressed, repressed, robbed, brutalized and defamed of all Damned Things is the individual human being. The social engineers, statistician, psychologist, sociologists, market researchers, landlords, bureaucrats, captains of industry, bankers, governors, commissars, kings and presidents are perpetually forcing this Damned Thing into carefully prepared blueprints and perpetually irritated that the Damned Thing will not fit into the slot assigned it. The theologians call it a sinner and try to reform it. The governor calls it a criminal and tries to punish it. the psychologist calls it a neurotic and tries to cure it. Still, the Damned Thing will not fit into their slots from the book ; Never Whistle While You're Pissing by Hagbard Celine

    The issue of the "climber on the ground" is the point where my respect for the system falls apart. The cost of compliance would put most companies out of the picture and i'm not writing a risk asessment for running a chipper whilst wearing a harness!!!!

    Do you think it would have held on the stump longer if you had retained all the buttress roots?

    Nice Carl. Big tree and brown trousers in the same day

    For what it was worth I did report it. However they were unable to send anyone from Leeds (approx 20 miles along the M62) within the hour or so I expected them to finish there work. They were happy for me to get the homeowners and workers details for them though......... For those who have an issue with such things being reported; if you do not- DON'T YOU DARE COMPLAIN!
