    Just had someone round, apparently sent by the previous owner to see what my problem is.  He said its not been sold yet, but is about to be.  He is going to be working on the listed trees.  I am being told so many lies . Everyone has a different story. It's been sold, it's  not been sold. Only taking out dead stuff, then fell clearing lots of live stuff. The firm I think it has been sold to said they were putting up  security fencing, this man agrees a proper fence should be put up.  I don't think they would have chopped down the Tulip tree if it hadn't been sold, as it was a present to Mr N for his 80th, and was his pride and joy.

    I hate being told lies. I'd rather folk told the truth, not what THEY THINK I want to hear.
    Get onto your local paper / radio station and report the illegal disturbance of birds' nests and the carnage of the trees.

    If you can find out who developers are put something on Facebook if possible as social media is often the best way to go these days!

    @fidgetbones , that looks like carnage - did you get any joy with the meeting of councillors yesterday?

    @chicky - I saw the funny side when I realized my recliner was electric and I couldn't easily get out of it! Not so amused when my laptop told me I didn't have wifi any more.

    I waited in all day yesterday for the councils, but then went out at 6.30. The councillor came at 7pm. Two different ones are coming tonight.

    To work on the listed trees they need planning permission, which they have not got. I can see me chained to a tree next weekend.

    it's unimaginable that there are NO nests there at this time of year. To disturb nesting birds is a criminal offence.
