but there was no-one there to hear it
did it make a sound..?
To me that raises many questions
Why did it fall? - trees don't tend to spontaneously fall
unless there are underlying issues of course
like rot.
Was it dead
was there a gale blowing
or did it just give up?
Maybe someone cut it down!
But wouldn't that make a sound?
Quite a lot of noise actually!
Was that when the confusion arose
about any noise the falling tree
might
or might not have made?
If it was cut down
that would mean there was someone there to hear it - the bloke cutting it down!
Did the bloke have ear defenders on and that's why he didn't hear it make any sound
surely he would have heard a sound if he wasn't wearing them!
But then he would have been a professional
a trained arborist - I hope
and so would be wearing ear defenders
and surely he'd have had a mate with him
to drive the Land Rover
to help with all the kit and so on
these trees aren't always easy to get to
this one was in the middle of a forrest
that's why they like having a Land Rover - what was he doing
what was this other bloke up to?
Didn't he hear anything
or was he like the other bloke
deaf from all those noisy chain saws
...did it make a sound?
Probably!
Possibly!
Dunno!
