Goodbye Swanage....
-
The Colour,Smell and the taste...triple whammy to the senses:)
-
Fresh smoked Kippers by the sea...Heaven!
-
Plenty of great looking catch...but nothing cooked....luckily if found this place next door...
-
I'm just a humble Tree Surgeon who loves life!
-
Thanks Pete! Devon with WOODWORKS...then South Devon with the Volenteers then Cornwall..........then "Fox@Lizard Point selfie" before heading back.

I'll see what I can do barmaid wise for you Mr Dog around Xmas day time;) No Butties for me now...I am at the Seafront listening to the waves rolling in looking out for a shop that will provide me with KIPPERS!
-
Indeed it was Wareham Robby. I'm off to Devon Yaffle! But where am I now?
-
Time to get on the road...need some breakfast. A mild night in the middle of nowhere kept lovely and warm by my SIP fleece.
-
I'm somewhere between there and here,having some time alone to think....Goodnite Arbtalkland
-
Love you guys! See you Marc, Sarah Sonny and Harper...Have a Happy Xmas!...Next stop, Devon. See you tommorow Mr Woodworks.

Thanks for being my surrogate mum for the last couple of days Mrs Lewis and looking after me..luxury Mince Pie..cream and Cuban Coffee before the next leg of my road trip.

Quick look at the tower while it's still light.

It's been great working with Marc again....he is a no nonsense bloke who just wants to get the job done then go home to chill with his familly. Mr and Mrs Lewis always make me feel like a part of their familly and its a second home for me...and for a travelling Tree Surgeon (which is my prefered title) that's cool. last job for me here in dorset...birch bashing then reducing...time to move on...
-
With help from his mate Matt.

Beautiful location near king Alfred's tower
-
Day 2 of work...Both still suffering but I am on the Mend wheras Marc was in a bad way.Luckily Mrs Lewis had given me a special Man-flu tissue as I was really-really poorly:( Anyway we got to site..a beautiful tree close to a large Redwood Marc had previously tieded the top of due to 30+ foot of it failing a while back..Magnificant large specamin. Any guesses what sort of tree it is? His first time using blue tongue with a ZigZag...he took to it well as he reduced some long heavy laterals

Nice Fox
-
Yeah I've dived in there a couple of times recently Ted but found it empty.
-
A great day for Team Protos! But we both needed a Cider or two after that....(both suffering from stages of chest infection.) But we got the job done and the customer was delighted with the work...beech inspection and birch dismantles today, then off to Devon!
-
But I got away from it after much cursing...installed Marc on one side with my spare Blue Tongue rope so he could try it but I wanted him to have it anyway.
-
All the way up it was a thick and quite old rose...noticed it at the bottom but didn't realise how extensive within the tree it was until I stepped off the ladder and started to get to anchor point.
-
That was a Holm Oak and then I got up the final tree. A Beautiful Lucombe Oak.....with a nasty suprise at the top of the ladder!
-
More coffee and more pruning...one more tree after this crown lift from Marc then it's my turn again.
-
More Coffee
