He comes from Liverpool - you probably have never heard of it.

[mozahemi]

obviously it is not good for the trees.... waste of money

[Dilworthy]

Damn right, its tree torture I say!!!!!! The result will be spiral trees eventually which may look nice but not good news for the trees

[priorleon]

surely it is bad for the trees as they grow to wards the light and if they are allways rotating then the light to the trees would seem to move round and round much faster so does this not mean the trees will be 'confused'??
