Hi guys

I wish I could join you all, but I am not free. Does being there in spirit count?

Wishing all a happy and safe Christmas and New Year

I have contacted Shane and told him that at this stage the Lucas and I will be there if it is Saturday the 3rd. Due to other commitments I may have to cancel at last minute but hopefully this won't happen. I will have to take my car down as it has the mill on it but would love it if some others could hitch a ride with me and chip in for fuel to make the day not so expensive. unless you live on route from Kalamunda it would be good if you could get yourself to me in the morning (plenty of room here to leave your car).

I have offered to mill Shane's logs for smiles however he has offered a share in the logs he has. I am not overly interested in the timber and will not have room to transport it and the mill back anyway, so others who would like some timber and have a means of transporting it might like to buy some of my share from me to help cover costs. We can work this out on the day but keep it in mind, bring money and an idea of what size boards you would like.

I have no idea how much timber there is, Shane just said there was some camphor, some type of pine and some other stuff.

Cheers,
Burnsy

Jamie: Hi everyone. Tonight on the World Room, we're down at Shane's place in Brunswick. I thought I'd do something a bit different for Shane - he seems like a down to earth character and I want to reflect that in his garden, and since I've made a pooncy garden to reflect every country I ever wanted to visit and I'm bored of that s*%te...
*scene cut to a slag heap at Cloudbreak*
...we're going to recreate an open-cut mining pit in Shane's backyard. Won't he be surprised!



...what, I thought you said I was the supervisor?

BoM is currently forecasting 39 for Saturday the 3rd after 2 days of the same...at the risk of sounding like a wuss, I'm not sure working outside all day in that kind of heat is even safe, never mind enjoyable. What are everyone's thoughts?

Bear in mind this is BoM's longest-range forecast...at the same lead time from Christmas Day they were forecasting 35, and that turned out to be 26.

Dingo - we'd love to (and much rather) have you there, assets or no.

Keep an eye on this space guys...

Juffy is BoM Bureau Of Mistakes I always think it should be BoMs Bureau Of Major Storms

[Pops]

Hi Juffy,

At 39 degrees with the choice of a chainsaw or a cold beer, I usually choose the cold beverage. Yeah call me a wuss too.

However, if the gang decide to go then I am still in, just make sure I get the order right, chainsaw FIRST, cold beer after. So whatever you do Juffy I will happy with, go as planned or postpone for another day, either is no problem.

Cheers
Pops

[Wild Dingo]

yep same as Pops for me

As to heading away... sigh... although the road calls in a massive incredibly intense way... sigh... I will I think have to postphone that for another day

Its one thing to get the house and be able to keep it... be quite another if I cant afford it cause I was a bloody idiot and went for a long holiday and spent too much!!! Affording a trip like that which I planned wouldnt be a big issue its the after I get back that could be a problem... I still have vivid memories of the problems I had getting a job when this thing first started and theres no bloody way I want to go down that road again!! So given Ive got a pretty good job I think Id better sit tight and keep the thing although Ive spoken to the boss and he SEEMS cool with me heading off as long as I contact him before we start back on the 5th he doesnt mind holding my job open for a week... seems being the operative word with this bloke... the jobs working casual with one of the labor hire mobs which means either one of us can let go without notice... a jobs a job.

Strewth sometimes I wish I was more able to just take a risk on me and go... but I guess Im either too damned carefull or Im a bloody procrastinator of major proportions!!

Anyway Im heading to my sisters place in Albany to help move my younger sisters stored gear down there... wonder whats happening in Albany over the New Years?... Any mates down there who know where the lonely women are?

So... sigh... ah well I will be here if you come beer will be cold theres water in the pool (not a biggie just one of them 1mtr high jobs Tiff got for me for Chrissy) and theres shade over it... kick back look at the weeds and think about it sounds good to me!! Or get stuck in during the morning kick back in the arvo and maybe hook back into it later arvo? dont think that would happen since once I kick back I have trouble kick starting my bum into gear again... mead has a tendancy to do that

Cheers
Shane
