Mike and I spent lunchtime cutting, loading and organising the brash. So that was two more loads done. Still got a few to go yet.
I offered to help a neighbour cut up a fallen tree. I imagined he’d want the wood for himself and that it would simply be great fun. But it turned out that he didn’t want it and just wanted the tree removed. He offered me a chainsaw in exchange for removing it. I accepted his kind offer and have enlisted the help of some other neighbours who want the wood also. We had a great day cutting it up on Friday. I think at least one is then was up there over the weekend, I’ll have to spend some more time up there this week as there is more to go yet.
Dad gave me a 2kW electric corded chainsaw that he’s purchased for a job that he never did and has since moved house so likely will have no use for this thing. I assembled it last night, filled it with oil and took a small cut in some polystyrene, then stuck it on a shelf, handy for next time I have to hack some wood up close to a power socket.
