    Hi, Looks like classic eiffel tower decay, the tree should be fine unless the buttress roots are compromised.

    Hi, Usual things, targets, enhanced duty of care and do I want to spend scarce resources and tie myself in to a cyclical maintenance regime? Oh yes there is also about 2000 hectares of ASNW directly behind. Have a good day.

    Hi Hama, Hispidus at that level, although I have seen it at 2m. I probably should have added these. 1. School premises lots of little targets. 2. Over lifted approx 7m. 3. Many historic pruning wounds, with what looks like associated canker, prob hispidus. This was a cursory glance, I,d been called to look at a different tree. I,ll go back on wed. and do a proper survey. Cheers.

    There is some confusion, originally a refresher course was needed every 5 years, now it seems Lantra will issue new certificates for a fee.

    Thanks for that, I,m starting in September and don,t really know what i,ve let myself in for. I,ve got a couple of units of the Prof. Dip. but found it difficult, hopefully this will be more achievable. Cheers.

    Hi, Is the assessment procedure all assignment work or are there exams and practical exercises as well?

    Hi, I,ve just been quoted 1.900 per year for a 3 year online foundation degree. Does that sound ok?

    Doing the PTI in Bicton, we are all under this tree surveying away, suddenly hear a crack, everyone looks around grinning, wouldn,t it be hilarious if a tree fell on a group of PTI students, anyway we go back to the classroom and 10 mins later this huge oak limb detaches itself and hurtles to the ground about 10 yards away from where we were. I can picture the headlines.

    Yeah, I,ve already done that. I,m pretty sure I,ll give it a go at Westonbirt this year. Apparently discussions taking place this week about approval for the examination.

    ****, just missed Hamas post, sorry.

    Sorry to butt in on this thread, but almost all mature lombardies exhibit extreme buttressing without the presence of basal decay fungi.Height,movement, reactionwood, at least thats what I thought.

    It is not deciduous

    I think the cones are wrong for Taxodium, looks like the wrong shape for Metasequoia, I,ll stick with Sequoia sempervirens.
  22. alliaria
    sequoiadendron sempervirens? Although not so semper in the pic.
  23. alliaria
    Certainly do, i,m amazed it,s still up, maybe we over estimate the risk! Though it would take a brave chap to leave it as it is.

    Hi Arbgirl, Now would that tree be in a pub near Chorley? I parked under it before Tech Cert in May, took a quick look at the tree and parked somewhere else. I thought about saying something, but was too preoccupied with forthcoming prac.

    Saw the very same one in september? I,ve tried to register the find but some mother got there the day before,,,c,est la vie as they say in mumbles.
