Farewell Forester


Today is ‘D-Day’ for Mike Tustin our Forestry Manager on his last day here at Nicholsons. After 7 years of hard graft at Nicholsons, Mike is shrugging off the comfort blanket and moving on to pastures new. From a life of creating and managing woodlands Mike is going to put away his wellies, don the tweed jacket, get into his BMW and sell woodlands instead. At least he will be a salesman with a forestry background! At his leaving party last night we all learnt the truth about his lack of maps, getting stuck and his passion for lay-bys. His leaving presents were a map case from Andy, a tow rope (definitely needed for the new car), some chocolate for his lay-by spotting hours, a beautifully crafted lime wood anchor from Matt (our fellow tree surgeon) and an engraved axe (as seen in the picture) from the whole team here at Nicholsons. We would all like to wish Mike well for the future and thanks for the cakes (at last!). Who can I tease now??? Going to miss you Mike! Cx
