Thanks but I expect to be asked for permission, as well as acknowledgement, give me 5 grand.

I can give you 5000 buttons? Or comics?
That’s why I wanted to see it. I loved that film as a nipper, my mum who is no longer with us loved it because of crappy song but I have fond memories of her explaining how famous that tree was when I happened to recognise it on a different TV show
Just a tree? I wish someone would cut you down you’re just a heathen.
Haha. What I meant was. He’s not committed murder, so what can the punishment really be.
As I said. It’s an iconic tree, that’s lived longer than us, and should have been there way beyond us, so even though it’s ‘just a tree’ I feel like he should pay the consequences of actions, which he knew what he was doing
It's tree murder. feck that kid.
Actually impressive for a 16 year old to chop a massive tree down. Clean job too.
Pretty taliban of him though, admittedly.

Me and the missus are staying up that way next month and we’d pencilled in going to see it as part of a longer walk.
It's just a tree. A tree that has stood for hundreds of years, visited by countless thousands of people, part of an iconic shot in a movie still watched to this day, a reminder of our history and existence on this earth, that it has stood in a place and been touched and sat below by people no longer with us, and now some idiot has cut it down. And for what?
The tree didn't advance civilization. It didn't discover a cure for cancer. But neither has the person who has cut it down. So what right did this person have to end it's existence? Buggering pap all, I'd say, and bum off to any fecking cnut who disagrees with me.

There is just no way that a 16 year old has somehow managed to expertly cut a tree that size down, in the pitch black, on a wet and windy night. Not even old enough to drive ffs so someone has given him a lift with a chainsaw to do it?
This kid may need to go into lifelong hiding off the back of what he's done. Can only hope the local authority does something even more beautiful with the area to turn this shite news into a positive.
Given the mountain of debt LAs are under I think they will commemorate the tree by making 150 redundancies.

No doubt there's a crappy tiktok video of him doing it out there somewhere, what a sad little world we live in.
amazing… the gift that keeps on giving
That was young Tim Burr.

For her or the fact that she was married there jinxed the pub?Used to go there all the time. My friend got married there, she thinks it’s a bad omen
Who raised that little shit? Poor tree wasn't hurting anyone then along come a little snotty nose bugger who chops it down.
Is that even possible?
Well the wankers that demolished it will be spending a lot of money finding out.
I bet they don't feel so smart now.
Will have to see to what extent it is but other cases such as this have seen buildings which have been rebuilt, yes.
Will they though, or will they just declare bankruptcy and walk away?
I suppose that's always a possibility with low life's like this.
For her marriage
Apparently the owner resigned as a director a few weeks back so I can’t see them being the ones to rebuild it. It won’t be the same even if they do.
How big of a cnut you have to be to destroy such a building.
Yeah there's absolutely no way those two twats will rebuild it. They'll rock up to court in three years time (parking over two blue badge, or family spots in their Range Rover Evoque), have their lawyer get them off on a technicality. Or between now and that point, after all the public ruckus dies out, they'll "come to an agreement" with a councillor who is absolutely not corrupt in any way whatsoever, and the whole thing will just go away.
It's the way of the world. Twats keep on twatting on. All we can do is take joy in the fact that everyone knows they're a twat.
I saw that a number of people have been arrested for arson. I wonder if these 2 have been charged? If so that might make a difference to the chances of getting it rebuilt.
Welcome to 18th century cooking show I'm your host Townsends.
On a scale of 1 to 100. I reckon about 96.7.
