We had some tree branches cut down yesterday. Things started a few months back when mum thought a tree looked as if was dying. I disagreed and said there were buds forming and sure enough it wasn’t long after that the leaves started to appear. Mum was still worried about the tree, quite a tall one and near to the house and we agreed that it would be a good idea to have an expert take a look at it just in case. The chap felt this tree was quite safe but he pointed out some branches on 3 other trees that he said would be best removed so we got a quote and agreed to have the work done.

I’d guessed the job would take all day but a team of 4 came round, equipped with a boom lift as well as chainsaws and the machine that chops the small stuff up and they were done in a little over two hours. They did a very tidy job too. A bonus of the job seems to be a bit more light towards the end on the daylight hours.

We’ve no house or garden projects planned at the moment and I think we’ll just settle for keeping things ticking over this year.
