Tree surgeon

If you have a garden full of trees and bushes, you have to accept that they will sometimes need trimming.  Some of it I can do myself, but the big trees need the help of a tree surgeon, so every few years we have to hire a professional.

Today we had three guys working all morning to trim down an ash tree which had come to dominate the garden (and shade our neighbour's garden excessively) and to trim a number of other trees and hedges.  They did a good job, and the garden now feels a lot lighter.  In fact, it almost feels bare compared with how it was, but we know that it will all grow again soon enough.
