And here’s the huge branch that’s sitting about 15 metres up, and the insurance company refuses to deal with it. The arborist we had over said that it was very dangerous and had to be removed. It sits right over the fence line.

If all it’s gonna do if it comes down, which may be years, is bring down a bit of fence I reckon you should leave it alone…

Don’t go near in high winds :)
