Spring pruning

My dad arrived this morning to pruning various plants around my garden, but he also had an ulterior motive! Whilst pruning, he could also get onto the top of the oil tank to peer over the fence into the neighbour’s garden and look for traces of red paint!!
So, a couple of pruned trees later, it was established that there was indeed red paint around where the foundations for the new building are going to go. Doesn’t make me feel that it’s anymore likely that Storm rolled in the paint of his own volition!
