All personal property and just silliness issues aside, this is quite an ugly tree -- and how scary that the public health people in Wales think that the problem with being pricked by a hypodermic needle is the prick itself.
Quoted: A 150-year-old monkey puzzle tree is facing the chop after health and safety experts said its needles are a danger. The 50ft-tall tree is to be felled after it's needles were likened to syringes.

‘Every effort is made in this day and age to prevent children playing with discarded syringe needles,’ a report stated.

How so?
"Eggs were not listed as an ingredient," Knight recalled.
