Why do I always forget the before photo??

No matter how many times I think about it in always part way through something before taking a photo. This is elaeagnus ebbingei having a short back and sides in the rain. The after photo is ready to remember and it's an extra.

The other extra is a cloud pruned Quercus Ilex, Holm Oak to you and me. I started this in summer 2020 when it was a 10m naturally growing tree that the owners wanted something done about before it was too large for me to reduce. Today was the first clip of this year, depending on growth it will get at least another couple. I'm very pleased with how it's looking.

After work collected some provisions and then RF and I cooked a tasty meal before I fell asleep on the sofa, bad me!!
