  1. Appallingly sad - just no age 🙁 k
  2. Nice inlays, dont point it at anywon. K
  3. Itsa false equivalence as you bloody well know. K
  4. Croydon!! You sure they ain't 'carrying'.... 😳 K
  5. .... Or when yr hammering it to bits to veteranise it. K
  6. ( and how high yr going )
  7. If you want to retain the tree , yes. Depends on what yr going up there for . K
  8. Well, harmful yes, it can allow insect invasion / fungal invasion and cause sap bleed . If yr inspecting a fault , a ladder may do but I would still want to be roped in . K
  9. Seen yr forecast fr weekend 🙁 k
  10. Pissing down, since 4am. K
  11. Dry leylandii yes, wet maybe not so well. K
  12. I would start recording evidence of their work ( inc' pics ) - am getting the sense it is a covert job - even if for a planning app in later years , they are sly these developers . One of my bosses got marched to magistrates over just shut nonsense . K
  13. Hard to tell for the pics , but even if its part of an original hedgerow - it could still be covered , it also begs question of what the developer got away with before ! K
  14. A lot of people think they can still, but often its not just protected by only one bit of legislation ! K
  15. Cheers Mark, was gonna post just this last night , but fell asleep K
  16. Well you cant just chop hedgerows out anymore, for a start. K
  17. Not some developers pulling a fast one with a rogue crew? Seen any survey types wandering about 🤔 k
  18. Often there is staining around the cavity, with flies in summer but occasional use overnight is the catchout. Hence scoping before starting yr saw. If work can be done with a hand saw around the tree, that can be a possibility. K
  19. Just post n shame, blatant offence. Should have read further up by the way 🙄 K
  20. It did thump down 😳 didnt put sticks under it as the main road into the caravan park had viewrs parked up to watch us and didnt want a stick getting flipped through their windows ! K
  21. Yes. That is apparent. You need a Bat scoping qualification to inspect, a Bat handlers certification to touch. Presence of Bats will determine yr next step. If any, K
  22. And thats after I put it on the deck . 2002 when I had nice hair
  23. No...
  24. Thanks for that - did save me a lot of typing there is usually a solution to habitat issues , just needs a creative mind to come up with one. Most important is yr due dilligence , get stuff on paper, then you have a defendable position . Last sett evacuation i did - a known sett - knew there were no badgers , the traps had no shots , applied fr license and put the exclusions in - done . K
  25. You see Matty, its part of legislation. Hate it or not, i have to point out possibilities to clients and then come up with answer, which i do and the job gets done. Based on my experience and qualifications. Dunno why that should piss anyone off when job gets done. The fines and adverse publicity can finish a company, K
