  1. Looks like an Arizona Cypress to me. Failing that, Birch.
  2. Would like to say as a former arborist working in SHHG, that it truly was a great place to work. I would recommend it wholeheartedly. Paul. *
  3. Nice job John. That tree's just round the corner from my house.
  4. Great job. I'm guessing you didn't get it all in the red trailer?
  5. Don't mean to be picky, but from the pics it looks suspiciously more like a 'frisia' False Acacia? could be wrong!
  6. You're welcome. Cracking little tree
  7. Persian Ironwood Parrotia persica?
  8. Thanks old snake. Got plenty more, but it's tricky knowing which ones to choose!
  9. Ah. So how do you put the youtube box up here then?

  11. Yeah, that was me. Good little machine, that. I suppose in relation to the others i am the young one
  12. Hmmm, the only recent thing we've done recently was at the top of stanford hill. Took down an old copper beech and reduced a holm oak. Was for an old folks home if i remember rightly. Still finding enough work? Things are quiet even round here!
  13. Very nice! We did some work for his next door neighbour, had to prune back some of his overhanging trees. Spoke to his gardener while we were there who wanted some of his pines "topped." Glad you spoke him round it! Did some storm work there not so long ago too. Met you very briefly John at dial a digger a while ago. Well. I say met, we said hi!
  14. I think it could be Dog's Vomit fungus. Fuligo septica. Pretty good description really!
  15. Oh and of course there's the old chestnut "Hur hur, I've changed my mind, can you put it back together please?" Yeah, sure mate, we'll just tip it up on your drive...
  16. Ever had anything like this?... Working in Salisbury last week, just clearing up after felling a silver maple; my van was being used for rakings, stuff like that. An old lady came up to me with a small bag... " Excuse me, can I put this in your lorry? It's a chicken. The bag's all tied up" To which I replied, "No!" Why couldn't she just put it in the bin?! I've had hedge clippings, stuff like that, but that was a new one for me!
  17. Had a classic one today... "Ooh, I didn't think you'd be here today, Isn't it dangerous working in the rain?" Give me strength.
  18. Looking good! Now correct me if I'm wrong, but has it been reduced in the past?
  19. :wave: Thought this may be of interest... http://www.save-sid.co.uk
  20. Just noticed I keep saying "that's said"
