We bought one in 2002 and then planted him in the garden where he grew and grew and grew in spite of being pruned every year to keep his girth in check. I used to put outdoor lights on him every year until he got too big to get up to it and then two years ago he just had to go. We donated him to the local primary school who were delighted with him.

Sounds great!
We did take one old Crispmus tree to France to fill in a gap in our Leylandii hedge, it too has grown fast.
I think maybe keeping our little 'un in a pot restricts its growth a bit, dunno really.
We have a neighbour who does what you did and he deffo needs ladders to put all the lights up. It looks really nice though!

Looks like a real heavyweight machine. What sort of work are you looking to do on it?

I don't have any solid plans apart from making steam engines. I may start a 3 1/2" loco like my father did but hopefully not take 10 years to complete it

....that the European Rugby Officials have made a total arse of their covid rules.
It appears that if you are a British or Irish side that can't fulfill a fixture then the other side get a 28-0 win.
If you are a British or Irish side that fields a weakened team rather than cancel and suffer the 28-0 verdict then tough titty.
But:
If you are a French side that can't play because of the travel restrictions imposed by their Government, then you get to rearrange the fixture(s) at some undefined time in the covid-free future!
Vive la France!

On the plus side...it was a joy to watch the Cardiff misfits take on the cream of French and English rugby!
