Hey ah, what do you think of BMGTG Mk II in mid May? Is it a bit soon or not? There were quite a few that couldn't get here last time, and obviously it wouldn't be all the same people anyway.
I say mid May (say Sun 4th or 19th for argument's sake) because the two Maples in the back yard are absolutely pumping colour then - just beautiful. May doesn't have a great deal of rain on average either.
Waddyez tink?

Are you getting us to lay concrete or yellow tongue ? If yes then maybe its too soon.

Yep, I agree with Paul - way too soon if we're talking heavy manual labour and besides it'll starting to get too cold in Katoomba in May....lol....

What a bunch of bloody suspicious buggers. :ranting2:
Waiddaminit.....:think:........:backscratch:
Look, there's going to be no concrete involved in the floor :no:. In fact I'd really rather have it done before then anyway, it's only four sheets of yellow tongue, and Skew said he didn't mind if I sat down and smoked whilst supervising him. Might even be a beer involved. :B
BUT, now that you've so ingraciously mentioned it, it could be quite fun to see how quickly 50 competent forearms could get the job done. :D:D:D
We could run a book, you know 30 minutes, 60 minutes, how big the biggest cockup is, who was responsible for it. first to cockup; that kind of thing. Jeez, it almost sounds like I've thought that through :innocent:, although of course, nothing could be further from the truth. :whistling2:

A very cunning plan indeed M'Lord. I dunno about Woodnut but I could take another drive. Need to look at a job up that way anyway :D
Might try and rope a couple of others in. May as well fill the car with able bodied work.........I mean woodwork enthusiasts.
