Freezing cold and raining, but were jobs to be done. At least it didn't rain too hard.

Cleaning up fallen Liquid Amber leaves at a commercial property. The wet leaves seem easier to pick up than when dry.



I seem to go through more 2-stroke fuel in late Autumn and early Winter, running the blower on full throttle for extended periods really chews through it.

Also on the docket today was cleaning up a carpark full of Plane Tree leaves, those things are dirty, dirty specimens, I really don't know why councils plant them.

More leaves were cleaned up another property, this time from a Standard Catalpa. I really like these small trees which feature an umbrella shaped canopy.

Last job of the day was to strip down, clean and refit a new chain for my Number 1 customer, then trimmed back their ornamental grape vine.





This put on a short but sweet show this year. I cut it back to a main framework every winter to keep it contained. No 'after' shots today, I was too cold and wet to be bothered!
