Another leylandii gone & replaced with an apple tree

We spent yesterday taking down one of the biggest leylandii trees here, the one on the left nearest the gate. Myself, Chris & Susanne chopped, logged and chipped the whole tree. It wasn't coming down as easily as I had planned as the chainsaw was cutting at an odd angle and needed to be rebalanced and sharpened. Eventually we got it down and today we planted an apple tree in its place.
