Arborist, there are bad apples in every barrel, you should'nt tar everyone with the same brush. You have shown 3 examples of violent behaviour by hunt supporters, there is an equal number of examples of hunt sabs doing things like purposely drawing hounds on to main roads to cause an accident, threatening and intimidating young children, beating hunt supporters up, I once had a nice chap stick a dart into the horse I was riding, he very narrowly avoided the kick from the horse that would have taken his head off, but I suppose that would have been my fault!

I agree with Dave, if they don't look well at this time of year you've got a problem.

Just some pics of a recent job with The BHL, this was working on a Ramsar Site, Marton Pool in Shropshire. Ramsar sites are wetlands of international importance, designated under The Ramsar Convention. The Ramsar Convention is an international aggreement signed in Ramsar, Iran, in 1971, which provides for the conservation and good use of wetland. The main aim of the job was to pull out carr alder and willow from the waters edge which is encroaching and shading out the reedbeds that are one of the important features of this site. The trees were not big, weight wise but had a lot of top and were rooted into the bed of the pool, add to that the peat bog and "quaking" ground and it was quite a challenge. Pics were taken with phone, so a couple not the best.

Sounds like your client is in a win, win situation there, who pays for the transport (5 miles) and the time it takes YOU to do it? -
