There ended up being quite a few of us (9 all up) there by late afternoon, and we enjoyed drinks and a good chat before the traditional Cambroon BBQ.
After everyone else left, Ron and I stayed up till 2am watching NASA dvds.
Paul came back around 9.30 the next morning and wowed us with his deforestation skills.
I took quite a few piccies of the process, I'll post them at a later time.
Thanks again for the hospitality Ron.
As Expected Jennette, weather did not improve so Maureen and others who where coming decided not to come
I enjoyed the drinks and DVD'sall that I have to do now is clear up all the deforestation refuse Paul left for me
Here's a couple of photos plus a tiny .gif of the first tree coming down.
The majority of the photos just showed the backs of your heads and
I much prefer to see your faces.
If only I could get the Lumberjack song out of my head.
Once you launch the .gif, the noise goes away.
I'll work on the next animation tonight.
Thanks Rob. I have a bit to do with chainsaws at work, and I'm pretty ....pedantic .......some of my students think excessively so...others think that I walk with permanently puckered buttocks.... about workplace OH&S. After having my right hand go through a 9 1/4" Makita powersaw when I was 19, I realized pretty quickly that bits of sharp metal going in a generally circular motion can take alot of flesh out in a pretty short period of time.
Three and a half months off work. The worst part about it was I'd spent nearly $600 (circa 1980) the night before on a new stereo system for my F100 and I couldn't do anything for months because of my hand being encased in plaster. I also spent about 4 grand on alcohol at the Royal Mail in Tewantin at the same time. Loved that Bundy Rum pain killer.
so Maureen and others who where coming decided not to come
all that I have to do now is clear up all the deforestation refuse Paul left for me
