By the way, its costing £3,000 to get it cut down.


Gordon Bennett! Are they replacing it with a gold one into the price? Get

I can't help feeling there's a typo there with the noughts. We've had all

cost that kind of money - Redwood cedars, Monterey pines - not a patch on
that for price and all mature trees dying back.
