It’s when you cut trees back say reducing the branches to three these then sprout new shoots and over the years accesablewood for firewood and keeping the tree lower.The photo shows the trees were pollared years ago and have been let go



Sorry used Spanish word Podar…..Pollard

On the beach at Fuengirola.

I don't know the full story, someone said that he was a German and died of a heart attack. His anchor dragged but how did the mast break?
I've been on the case. He was anchored outside the marina as per normal. Usually Frank would come into the marina when a storm was forecast but not on this occasion, he had been dead for two weeks. The pounding on the beach somehow caused the mast foot to drop and the mast to break - that is what my source has told me, I cant picture it but have no better explanation.

Definitely not the S of F. Stingo you're sworn to secrecy about location. That's the local beer and a starter. There is a clue there somewhere in the pic.
