We have some rot at the base of our verandah posts.
Bought some steel stirrups to replace the lower 130mm of them.
As I prised the first post off the nails and slid it from under the fascia, there was a loud creaking followed by splintering wood sounds.
Bewildered, I'm looking left and right to see what was collapsing.
Then there was a huge crashing as a large bough from one of next door's trees fell into their garden.

I bet you didn't even realise your verandah was holding their tree up in the first place!
Old pilots never die, they just run out of runway.

You certainly don't do things by halves do you Mike!!

Did you make a compost ?

No worries mate - send your neighbor a bill for tree "service."

Hang on a minute - I thought your neighbour was 200 miles away, in the Outback ?
