Due to
our lack of central heating (my fault
) when my father in law cut
down a couple of trees in his garden, he gave us a lot of logs to burn so we
didn't have to buy so much coal
But when they started to run
out, I mentioned to my dad that I didn't relish the thought of having to
buy lots of coal again, but didn't have any choice
He said
he'd been thinking of cutting down the hedge across the bottom of his
garden, so over the last few weeks, that's what I've been doing
/>
I borrowed a mate's chainsaw, and took out about 50 foot of
trees, which has made his garden look a lot bigger
Well, this has
sort of snowballed - my brother rang me to say he knew someone that wanted
some trees cut, then I got a message a friend of her's wants some cut
down too, and he told me last weekend that a customer he was doing a job for,
wanted a tree cutting down in his garden - so I went and did that Tuesday
afternoon after work, earnt myself £25 for about an hour and a half's
work
Been to look at the second job today, and
there are about five trees to be taken down, a row of 18 conifers to be
trimmed right back and the tops cut off, plus all the neighbour's
trees' overhanging branches too - reckon there's a couple of
weekend's of work there alone, not to mention the first job too
