help?!
Lovely weather here but Lou is working all bank holiday weekend and I have been busy with lots of work work jobs to do, which is unusual for August, so not much to tell you all about. Tess will report in later with pics about the girls hol.
But do you have any thoughts on a problem I have (?) - a horrible orange plastic bag has been stuck in our oak tree, about 40ft up for the last 9 months or so. Every time I look at it I get irritated , but I cant think of a way to get it down ?! Too high to jump up from the trampoline, I dont have a fishing rod (and cant cast anyway) Tree gets pruned every 4/5 years or so and not due - so any clever thoughts welcome! Jx

Find a cat that likes to climb trees, tie a plastic bag that subtly matches the bag in question lightly to the cat's tail and send the cat up the tree, perhaps by setting off a noisy firework behind it. When the cat slows down after its initial hurried ascent (which you could calibrate by changing the ferocity of the firework) and turns around to come back down, or simply to look around, the plastic bag will tear loose from the tail and get caught in the tree, along with the existing one.
The colors of the bags will provide an interesting complement to the green of the oak, and make an ironic statement about the roles of both the oak tree and the plastic bag in the carbon chain.
Do this several times and you will have a multi-colored, petro-chemical/carbon statement that you will be able to sell to Charles Saatchi for a few hundred million pounds.
Happy to help.
Brilliant! True free thinking and already I am looking at the bag differently - thankyou! x
Why don`t you climb the tree?
