I have this octostrap thing. You can tie down branches and stuff with the four double ended plastic stretchy hooks. A ladder for clearing gutters or climbing higher for hedging or whatever.
Sunglasses are an absolute must for eye protection when weed whacking.

One of my regular customers Kyle, he'll just get me round like once every three months to trim his olive plants which grow around the perimeter of his little backyard. Recently he pioneered the double ladder with plank technique for me so I can just walk a few metres on a sturdy metallic plank or wood, can't remember, between his two ladders. While hedging with the extension hedger, about four yards or so in length, requires muscle. That's a tricky job, I have to go to the neighbours yard and hold the four metre trimmer above my head to reach six metres plus. Very muscular in a particular way. Sunglasses again useful. That's a very catlike job as I find myself standing on a six foot high fence in incredibly precarious positions being poked by olive branches, very tricky but ultimately enjoyable.
If it's crazy hot like 100 degrees and it's passout hot I wear a wide brimmed hat and long sleeved shirt which is soaked in sweat keeps me cool enough. It's a workout! Good for the heart.
My son turned eleven today. We got Thai restaurant and a fancy cheesecake.
