Timber...

Yesterday one of the big beech trees had come down over the fence into the field, now they always say you shouldn't camp under Beech... this is probably why.  Bearing in mind the Beech tree is also known as the widow maker due to its nasty habit of dropping big branches without any warning it was with some trepidation Mark went in with the chainsaw.  I stood at a respectful distance, picking up the odd branch, offering moral support.  Mark said there were a few "twitching like a rabbits nose" moments.  Glad to get the job done with all limbs attached, the fence up and some very happy broodmares in the field and munching merrily.
