Tree Surgeons’ And Their Toys

Pat could not wait to sit on this ‘tractor’ which is a quite remarkable machine. Luckily she resisted turning the key.

When Pat was three years old she climbed onto her father’s tractor and she did turn the key. Victor had left the gearbox engaged and Pat sat on the tractor as it demolished the barn doors!

The extra shows a section of oak tree trunk which has just been harvested. It weighs 1200lb and this particular ‘toy’ is quite capable of lifting it and loading it onto a trailer.
