    Hello all you guys in suffolk area. When i fell some of my trees i need to give a little help with the tractor. I was wondering what you do with your ropes if they fail testing do you throw them away or not? I usually use steel cable but it would be easy to take up rope:001_smile:

    Which estate steve? pm me if you dont want to say here. For all those who went to barchams dr D L said far to many trees are cut down far to quickly. trees and fungi have lived together in harmony for millions of years as long as we manage them. which is better for all tree workers because as long as the tree is there we have work:001_smile:

    David that is my favourite place i have stood by most of them trees i eat my lunch under the proped oak. The leaning oak was interesting as i have got to do the same on a yew tree which is leaning over a driveway and i need to see if it moves any more, the problem with it was ivy the ivy in the top was like a tree of its own. lovely pictures.

    A farmer sprayed a field with roundup and it was windy it killed all the mature hawthorn trees and killed most of the blackthorn. A newly planted hedge lost all its leaves and did come back the next year but with tiny leaves.

    My perfect day would be sitting on the rocks in a small bay in cornwall with my wife and three dogs. my dogs can run in and out of the sea and chase each other and we can drink the peace and quiet.
