following our neighbours (with contribution from us) felling of two trees from his front garden, and 3 from his back ...
today, heard a chainsaw, and saw house across the road is having trees felled in the back.
Then round the corner, another house is having trees in his front garden felled.
And now, there's a whine from the bottom of the close where another house is taking trees out of their front garden.
Wonder if we started a trend ? Also wonder how the water table will fare !
As an aside, the company(s ?) doing the felling today look a little cowboyish. The firm that took out the neighbours trees (advertised in the parish gazette with 40+ years of experience) were using full-face masks, parachute harnesses, and heavy boots and gloves. Just looking out the window the lad doing the front tree has no face protection, no gloves, no trainers, and was climbing the tree without a harness. I couldn't look too long.
