OT: Sycamore Gap, Prince of Thieves tree felled

[millertop]

16 year olds running about with chain saws ? What has happened to morals in this country ?

Exactly, did he carry it in a backpack and nobody noticed?

Looking at the size of the tree that is not done with a chainswa that you'd comfortably carry for any sort of distance. the white markings on the tree stump and the quality of the cut means it wasn't done by a 16 year old school kid.

Yes I do find it a bit strange, maybe he wasn’t the only one there

They're saying a 16 year old has been arrested. Can they name him? Will we get to know who he is?

I can just see his lawyers opening gambit in court, he’s got mental health problems, drug user, broken home but he’s good to his Grandma.

How far is he walking with a chain saw?
Google maps already updated to Sycamore Stump.

Fell a tree onto him and leave him for the crows

A local has set up a go fund me page with £10k target for a bronze replica. Do they know how much a bronze replica would cost? and wouldn't it be better to have a new tree than a sculpture.

Bronze statue? Middle of nowhere? Straight up the “”Gypos r us” street. 😄
