I was out on the driveway sweeping up leaves when several men in hard hats arrived with their highway maintenance machinery. Himself had been edging the grass but we both stopped what we were doing and left the men to park on the drive and start their work.
They were here to clear branches from the electricity wires that meander from house to house in an untidy fashion throughout the village. The red phone box is no longer in use and has been bought by the village. We plan to use it to house a defibrillator. It has been ordered and we are considering that the box may need to be lit by solar power. I asked the men if they would chop a good amount off the fir tree in our garden to allow some light to the phone box and they obligingly removed a good three feet or more,
Then they tidied up the horse chestnut tree and put everything into the shredder - what a noise!
It's great to watch other people working!
Phew. I thought HS2 was going right through your garden for a minute, Cher.
ReplyDeleteNo pear tree was harmed in the cutting down of these branches!
DeleteYour garden looks delightful. Lovely to see autumn colours. Going to be early 20's C here today but in the South Island late 20's. Could herald a hot summer ahead.
ReplyDelete20 degrees - oh, heaven! I've just got a new teddy bear coat ready for the winter ahead. I'll blog it on Miss Cellany.
DeleteSo nice to get things cleaned up before winter, especially the trees.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's a good feeling to sort things out a bit and to be outside while it is still pleasant.
DeleteI really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me. Then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again.
