'Just get on with it girl, you cannot be sentimental about a dead tree' she said to herself. She nodded at Dean, who was standing holding onto the first branch, and switched on the chainsaw.
It didn't take very long as the sharp blade ripped through the dry wood, she cut each of the branches down in two pieces, then it was the time to cut through the trunk. She took it down in three pieces and levelled the base as flat as she could.
The pieces were taken out to the car together with unwanted bricks and other unwanted materials. And off they went with Dean to the council dump.
She swept up the sawdust, straightened the garden furniture back into place and sighed.. poorpoor tree.
What a stupid man, fancy planting those dreadful ivy, then training them up a Japanese flowering cherry tree.
Ah well.. it's gone now but let this be a warning to you all, don't let ivy anywhere near any of your trees or garden and house walls.
These evil plants suck moisture out of trees and the cement between bricks and you don't want that.
She's a bit stiff but it's nothing that a hot bath with a couple of handfuls of magnesium sulphate can't cure.. ah, you may know it by a different name.. Epsom Salts. PipPip.. we're off to splosh.
GeeGee Parrot.
