They cut down the trees!

the water board didnt like the trees being so close to the drains

so after negotiation with the house builder (and planter of trees)
they told us the trees had to go

sad to see them chopped down in their prime

they were a stunning pink colour a few weeks ago..

in their place we have a bay tree, some myrtle , sage and a buddleia

id much rather have the trees back!
