All good, Don't really get hangovers.

Used to give the head a shake in the morning just to see if it hurts at all
I cut a little bit here and there off and think I come up with some sought of a plan, I will get the carver out soon

Heaps of potential there Bretts

Could you get the two middle ones in the centre and at the back to flow the other way next repot

Or do you prefer it that way.

Thanks Ces glad you like.
I reckon I might have taken too much out of the main tree and I may get some die back. In Fact I will be surprised if I don't. But since I am not sure where I am going this could be a good thing. I only took dead wood of the other smaller tree so that will not affect it at all.
Thanks Meagi I have three other English elms on the go maybe some one else will take over this one
Maybe Bodi. The middle "tree" is connected to the far right back tree but nothing saying it can't be separated. It is a bit of a every which way composition at the moment but swapping that trees direction might help some?
