You know me too well
I'll have a wander off and look at the pictures of the naked boys - they are naked aren't they - please dont disappoint meOr am I getting muddled again!
Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...0 -

To kill a tree (thats if any of you are still interested)
:
1. Leave your new and to be planted baby tree out in the drying sun and wind.
2. Plant your baby tree but do not water it.
3. Fertilize your tree often by doubling the recommended rate (especially during dry conditions).
4. Bang your tree with a lawnmower or rip trunk with a weed trimmer.
5. Use your car to tap, firmly, the tree bark (and remember that tree roots just hate cars parking on top of them).
6. Prune your tree way back, leaving less than 2/3 of the live crown.
7. Pave the ground above the tree roots.
8. Use and store chemicals and other toxic materials over the root zone.
9. Invite construction crews in to work around the tree and, by all means, let them trench.
10. Use your tree as a utility pole for fences, mailboxes, deer stands, electric lights, etc.
