i would give the parish two options
a. remove dead and dieing wood and come back the year after for a re-evaluation stressing that this is probably only going to be a little remedial work and that the tree may have to come down.
or
b. Tell them to save themselve some money it may be the better to fell and replant stressing the health and safety implications of having a tree that going to shed branches.
either way any work that you do on the tree remember to clean you saw after as bleeding canker may be carried on the saw an infect the next tree you do if suceptable?

teabag in first, boiling water next, press the teabag into the cup side till youve got you moneys worth or till you thing the bags going to break then milk, whilst stiring cause you dont want to much, then two sugars.
Things to remember
A. Dont buy cheap teabags
B. Milk first is just not right, how can the water be boilig if you got cold milk in first, read the box. boiling water
C. If the customer cant keep dog muck out of the garden for the one day your there do you think you should be drinking from there cups?

ive bought this Acer pseudoplatanus Brilliantissimum about 3 years ago and for the most of it its good tree where space is limited when the leaves are young they are a salmon pink through the summer they are a very light yellowy green and has great autum colours but since planting it ive noticed some of the leaves have burn like scars. the scars are not at the edges of the leaf but they are inter-veinale i think you would call it so some idears would be helpful
it may be it just needs more water or its getting to much sun. i dont know ;but its a little disappointing when the patches appear

a guy had lived in this for 15 yrs on the car park in lymm. apparently hes got rights now so we couldnt move himeven though i think the skin of the van was made of crisps . we was goin to attach a rope to his van and pull him out of the way before he got up but when we looked underneath it was held up with bricks and a jack
so we dropped some chunks of log down to waken him then knocked him up properdiscussed risk assessment and such and off he went to the pub which wasnt far .....it was there car park
caused us a little bit of trouble but all went well and he was reunited with beloved VW to sleep it off:icon14:

i had a bash at the butterfly - it hurt my kideys and mad my gahonas swell to unreal proportions:bawling:

i love my cresto skybelt sometimes it feels like im putting it to bed and tucking it in as i put it away after a job and waking it up again for another bash makes me smile i also have a Petzl Navaho Mini Boss which doesnt make me feel the same at all. i think the navaho was a bad buy,but it does have a good seat on it where i can have a quick nap after dropping huge limbs and waitin for them to be cleared up lol
