Hope this is the right place, was poking about in mothers loft, and came across these, yeah that is me! When i had black hair and was as fit as a butchers dog, the aftermath of the great storm of October 1987, the beech was the most dangerous and biggest tree i had tackled at the time, it took me a week on my own to cut up and produced a record 72 loads of logs, and boy some serious burning up.
The next few are of some big windblown sycamore, i left the stumps etc, just as the owner asked.
Another reason, i posted this is because it is at Colehayes Field Study Centre, where i am holding the next meet, at the end of the month.
If it does not bore too many, i have other pics, from my days as a tree surgeon.
