well im moving to my dads home, 3 bed room bungalow, in Hook, it has a big garden that has not been touched in years, so i thought i would show you all how it looks now and how it will change over time. i will be very sad to leave my garden in Bradford, but i will bring as many plants as i can dig up. my plan was to sell dads and buy my home in Bradford, but with the housing market as it is i am not prepaired to sell for £100,000, so madly decorating now. i am a bit worried though that it will always feel like dads house and not mine, but hopefully decorating will alter that.
help carnt add pics

the guys that cut it down removed all logs, the guy who cut it down is 62, up the tree no ropes, no helmet etc, stud on the branches, balencing with sig in one hand, chainsaw in the other

You could have saved a few logs for a stumpary  , OHs been up the tree in my parents house a few times chopping bits off but with scaffolding, he must be mad to do it with no safety equipment . Looks like you have alot to do what plans do you have?? . |

I bet taking that tree down has let so much more light into the garden. I look forward to seeing what you do with the garden.
