Weekend willow removal :(

This weekend we had to take mums beautiful willow down  I bought it over 30 years ago for a birthday present she loved it - when her bungalow was built in the grounds of the house the willow wasnt taken down but now its become so large the roots are doing damage -  they  have already caused drain problems but now lifting the conservatory - Its all down done and dusted was a sad weekend - photos follow - the whole area is bare now  - many logs have been chopped and given away- neighbours kindly lent their 'green' bins for us to fill with the rubbish leaves and twigs and we also got to burn some . I got to fry chips on Saturday and full fry up  on Sunday :/ omg i hate cooking lol
