<\/a><\/p>\nUntil this morning, when the silence was broken abruptly and without warning by a chainsaw roaring into life. When I looked outside, I found that two men were back, this time with their heavy equipment, and had started work without my noticing.<\/p>\n
Before I knew it, they’d also cut down the scrubby little trees round to the north end of the house that I’d asked them to clear. For the moment, it’s left the house looking very bare, but you can’t make an omelette without cracking a few eggs and there was no way of making anything of that part of my garden all the while the trees, that were really just giant weeds, were still standing.<\/p>\n Here are a couple of shots of the equipment that they’d brought with them today in action, a bit of a difference compared to their last visit when all they came with was a tractor, a chainsaw and a small set of aluminium steps \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Only one of the pair returned after lunch and he set to single-handedly to chop a few of the smaller logs into shorter lengths and use the grab to transfer logs and branches into the large trailer that they’d brought for the purpose. I saw at least a couple of loads going out of my garden this afternoon, with difficulty I might add, as the road is quite narrow and the turn out of my entrance very sharp with a telegraph pole on one side.<\/p>\n This was the view when he’d left at approaching 7.00 pm this evening.<\/p>\n Even though the ground is firmer now than it was a week or so ago when it was still raining, you can imagine what those huge, agricultural tyres have been doing to my grass. I should imagine that at end of this one, they’ll be looking for another job – landscaping my garden.<\/p>\n But it’ll be worth it in the end \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After the tree-cutters had finished their work and disappeared again on Friday as swiftly as they’d arrived, this was the view from my living room window the next day.
