Tree Surgeon Recommended


I have used David for a tree removal job.


I got 3 quotes - he was competitively priced, took away all the wood and tidied up


I highly recommend him.


His number 07931 921691

One Not Recommended


I used someone else for another job, got his number from a card put through the door (family business, friendly etc)


He said that the chainsaw would be damaged and need replacing (?40) and that it would be quite a job to kill the roots - he would have to put chainsaw in deep into the trunk (in fact it was a few inches).


I rashly agreed to his price. The job actually took 20 minutes - which means that his hourly rate is closer to that of a brain surgeon.


He didn't clear up at all - this was agreed, but I had got the impression the job would be a bit more involved.


The chainsaw clearly wasn't damaged as after he had a go at another tree and the cuts were clean.


Stupidly, I didn't get a receipt. Have asked for one, but no sign of it yet.


David got back to me with a quote after job was done and it was half the price!


My bad. Lesson learned.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      Let's not forget this is the lowest level of local politics. If McCash really thought his defection could trash the Labour Party nationally, and it was loaded with invective and exhibitionism, then that's pretty much the definition of a "hissy fit"! Scooping the Green nomination for DaWN constituency is also going to be a lot harder for a Marxist arriviste than you suggest. There may be a wave of new, younger Polanski-ites that have joined the Green Party of E&W recently, but it's the long-standing, often retired members of the Party that tend to participate in candidate interview panels and bother voting in selections...

      Franklins is being sold

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      They've had 26 years or so of trading, and if anyone deserves decent retirement... In my view they're going out at the top. It's clearly being sold, assuming it all goes through as a very more more than just a going concern.

      I had heard this was on the cards a while ago, sad, the end of an era, but well done Rod and Tim for stewarding a beacon of excellence for so many years.
