Well, there were three of them.
They arrived this morning at the car park for the apartments behind our house and started unpacking their ropes and chainsaws.
By the time we left to catch the bus to Peel they were well underway.
This is the new view that greeted us on our return
I like that you can see the lovely hills!
ReplyDeleteWe can just ignore the car park view!
DeleteYes, might as well look on the positive!
DeleteAre you pleased or sad about this?
ReplyDeleteWell, the tree did block some of the unsightly buildings, but now we can see more of the hills so win some, lose some.
DeleteOh Dear. You could have nicely asked them to hold off until you were ready to move on again.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, that would have worked well 😉
DeleteOne assumes they had good reason for it. Not all things are bad.
ReplyDeleteWe think that a large, heavy branch was resting on the roof of one of the garages so could have caused a collapse.
DeleteHang on. You have just moved away from Peel and already you're pining for the old place.
ReplyDeleteJust a few loose ends to tie up, YP. Settle a few debts and all that 😏
DeleteI think it was better with the tree!

Vronni! I am trying to be positive about it xxx
DeleteYou've got a clearer view of that building but they have a clearer view of you too.
ReplyDeleteI shall tell P to make sure he doesn't walk about in the altogether!
DeleteAt least when the trees were cut here, they left us the tree (sans foliage), and yes we could see things we'd rather not, but at last the foliage is starting to grow back. Give it a year and we might again be screened from the rooftop dogs opposite that bark at any moving thing THEY can see.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing left of this one except a pile of sawdust.
DeleteWe had some men in recently to cut down a dead Walnut tree. The one who went up the tree was a small Portuguese man who climbed like a monkey. With just a small hand-held chainsaw, he soon had the whole tree down, and chopped into manageable sized pieces. It was quite an experience. The man had NO FEAR.
ReplyDeleteYrs, the one up in the tree was leaping about like a monkey, although he did have a rope and harness.
DeleteI laughed at your Tree Fellers joke JayCee😊.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad somebody got it!
DeleteSounds like the beginning of an Irish joke "Dere were tree fellers in a pub - De Pope, Cristiano Ronaldo and Dave Northsider. De Pope says 'Begorrah, who's round is it?'. Cristiano says 'I don't drink' and Dave Northsider says 'I'm off to catch me ferry' ". I can't remember how the joke ends but The Pope was not amused.
DeleteOr the two blokes looking at a jab ad "Tree Fellers wanted". One of them says "Shame there's only two of us".
DeleteShocked neighbours saw JayCee paying tree fellers for their services... Reminds me of the "four candles" sketch by The Two Ronnies.
Delete"Fork handles".
