The favourite saying of most old school fallers i knew was : lets get out of this god forsaken place as soon as we can this afternoon, and get back home where its safe warm and dry.

Well carrying on with this theme,yesterday a local farmer had a massive 360 just pull over and rip up a line of mature ash trees and semi mature ones,then dug roots out.Looked like a ww1 photo. Piled up the lot into a massive heap ready for burning,today have been levelling to standard of a billiard table. No dieback,no rot,just few hundred tons of bonfire material. One tree in this line had gone over in gales and i asked him a fortnight ago if he wanted it cleared up and ide pay him for the timber,he simply said 'no' and walked away from me. That went on the heap too.

Just remembered 2 or 3 years ago blocked down some poplars for one of the last desendents of a well known high street banking family,just before lunch time a kitchen maid danced out of the big house and came over to take our order for drinks,then 15 mins later out comes the butler in full regalia across the lawns to us with the drinks on a large circular silver serving tray.

Yep,lads and i knocked some trees over that had to be done on a sunday last week,and the lady,who up to that point had seemed a right dragon,brought us out 4 bacon butties(as there were 4 of us) at 11,along with hot drinks n bickies. Changed my opinion of her there and then.
