It's Raining

At the weekend I asked my daughter to cut some thin uprights on the Catulpa Tree, while chatting to her about how worried I was about the weight this branch was holding as it hangs down & starts to go back up.
I felt it might be best to cut the branch a little, explaining that my friend Paul had said where best to cut the branch.
I said if my daughter cut it then it must be a flat slopping cut so when it rained the rain had nowhere to settle.
 I think she got it spot on; what do you think.?:)
