We were called by one of our own to assist with a tree that had fallen across his driveway, preventing him from getting his car out. I must admit that this is the first time that I have attended a member’s house and I think the “carton rules” apply…
Quite a large white gum – about 15m high and a trunk of about 800mm diameter. The tree appeared to have some rot and ant activity.
It ended up taking about 2 hours to finish the job with 4 chainsaw operators using 3 saws.

- Lucky it fell in the direction that it did - otherwise there would have been bigger issues.

- Keith ended up sharpening saws about 4 times during the night.
