About 2 years ago we had lightening strike one of the big oaks in our back yard. I had been hoping it had just gone into shock but it was slowing dying. Being so big & close to the house we knew we needed to have it taken down but had to get in a tree service that would climb it as they can't get any big equipment into the back yard.
Felicity: "Freda why are we sitting here on the patio? Is there something entertaining going on today?"
Freda: " I have no idea but I'm not sure I'm going to like it!"
Felicity: "Oh my look how high up he is! I can't look!"
Freda: "Keep your knickers on Felicity! I think they know what they're doing"
Felicity: " Timber! Oh no it's going right for the shed.....oops it's not supposed to be sticking out of the roof like that is it?"
Yup. They managed to drop a branch on the shed roof but will be back tomorrow to fix it. Also when they dropped the main part of the trunk they broke the perimeter wire to our invisible dog fence. As long as Molly is wearing her collar she doesn't even think about going across the "line" Good thing as it will be a while before that cut up so we can repair it.
BTW The pics were all taken by Popster as I was at work when all this happened. That's why there's no shot of the tree sticking out of the roof:)
Love
