“As well as having Speyside Tree Services with me I included Josh Tompkins and Jeremy Thornhill in the team, who for me are two of the best tree climbers in Moray. We used the MEWP to set ropes in the trees as we tackled each one, and to let us reduce their crowns to a size that allowed us to fell each tree safely between the rails and the road when pulled by the tractor winches. We felled two each night then aimed to clear the site, including chipping branches, before our 4:30 am deadline. This unfortunately led to complaints about the noise of the chipping from neighbouring houses.” Jim Mailer
