Yes. As above. The tree is growing within the CA so all parts of the tree are subject to CA rules

Heave will be going above its ‘normal’ level. When there has been years of moisture deficit you get re wetting, the ground will begin to turn to its ‘correct’ level. This can take a long time after a trees gone though.

This sounds interesting, any more information?

Drag myself out the woodwork for this one!

Completely agree. It's a hired machine I use but get the odd full day with it to earn its cash. I had a stx26 on demo and Thought it was a bit underpowered, but it was sent out with a full set of completely blunt teeth. The slew style of 20% left and 80% right was odd to me, not really practical. The machine is very good and very easy to use. The 38 has a Perspex screen in front of the controls which does catch quite a bit. If I was buying one I would be looking at the narrower bandit or predator machine.

Had the toro stx38 out again. Rotten willow stump and 3 beech stumps. Turned the teeth for the final, biggest beech stump. It was properly ripping chunks out. That stump was rotten too so it made short work of it!

You could look into Pear Technology and their PT Mapper? Very similar and well suited to this purpose

What mark said! ^^ To enable the local authority to use the Asbo act and specifically the high hedges section, you have to use all available avenues with the neighbour first. Then the council get involved but can charge extortionate fees. There is no right to light when it comes to trees unfortunately. It looks like the trees/ hedges could have been maintained in the past, or are in a long cycle so they gain a fair amount of height in between cuttings. Speak to them first.

Maybe bandit could come and paint your nails? You'd end up with a bit of overspray though and have colourful fingers too!

Looks like lots of fun Paul, but whys that guy drinking from a catheter?? [emoji13] Timon. That's me! It was a bag of cider. Lovely stuff.

I've been stood near a cherry in full leaf with someone being adamant that it was dead.

I will see you at the top of the arborists arms tomorrow Paul [emoji1360]

Bose are good with their support and repairs. I have a set of the companion 5 speakers which I've had over 10 years. Power surge in the street killed the power supply. Took them in to a bose shop and they sent them off, refurbished them and charged me £80. Good as new! Will get years longer out of them now! I'm another vote for the mini soundlink. Money well spent.

Not 100% sure. I think it's possibly a ground care machinery place. I hired the grinder off a nearby firm.
