this old dead tree on my boundary has had a lean for quite some time.... decided it was time to fall over...
things that go bump in the night... I thought it sounded metallic?, like a ladder falling over onto the ground.... rather than the straight whooomp! of a tree hitting the ground... didn't get out of bed...
a metre to the right would have been better.... shame about that ...
it didn't even leave a big root crater either, the white ants must have eaten the roots away... they weren't interested in the tree... every cut with the chainsaw to break it up was all solid dry hardwood...
While always on the grumpy side, T rex is looking a little more jovial this year as the Natural History Museum has had a very bespoke jumper made for him - check out his wee arms. It deffo took the edge off the usually terrifying sight for the young school kids visiting today. I hope they make this a tradition as everyone's loving it .
