I work in conservation and enjoy nature
And then either they will be considerate and willing to discuss, in which case happy days, or they won't, in which case you will know you tried!

Tricky one. Personally I'd monitor for a while to see how often it's annoying and if I could live with it if it's occasional. And if I couldn't then I'd raise it with them and say I found it distracting and ask for a compromise (e.g. turning it down when you're both on site, suggest headphones)...

Ha I'm trying very hard to not volunteer myself for that, I know it would be a solution but might end up being more stressful overtake!

Thank you! Unfortunately the site is owned by a tiny local charity (a legacy to the village) so he's answerable only to the trustees, who don't seem to care. I've been totally left alone for years, the site is just a field with no facilities, but this new secretary is power crazy!

It absolutely is. What the fuck is wrong with these people!

While there may be many similarities, I guess a zealous adherence to health and safety rules is probably not one of Elon Musk's features, so I think this is a different guy...

2) 'Pollarded', not that you should do that to apple trees, a huge beautiful apple tree on the edge of the site.

3) Hacked to the ground, today, nesting season, the bramble patch at the end of (and I think on) my plot.

All of this in the name of health and safety. He is deaf to reason.
