Drinking the other half of Bells before chain sawing was NOT a good idea either .

Lucky escape.

I slipped over in the snow today and bashed my elbow. Felt like a right tw@t.

I was halfway up a tree , and under pressure from the G/F had not taken the chain saw up with me to LOP the top half of tree off , but instead took a bow saw ...
whilst working on it , the tree snapped and I fell 10 foot onto a bank and rolled downhill to a path ...if taken ..the chainsaw could have done anything whilst I was falling :0 :0

I KNOW some of you will be cursing my G/F at this minute :D

Joking aside, you are bloody lucky. I have done a lot of tree work, but I am not a qualified arborist - I do however know a couple and that even they would preferably not work when branches are covered in ice.

Was it the wrong sort of of ladder? If so you might be quids in.

(If the guy in the ambulance chasing ad knowingly used the wrong sort of ladder then surely he's to blame and no-one else?)

In the real world, the bloke in the ambulance chasers advert would never win a case.
