    Default G'DAY ( from wet queensland )

    hi from pomyal
    a proud ex pom,and an even prouder australian.

    i am interested in wood work of all types,and now i have retired at 65 look foward to learning from you woodies out there.
    janet my wife of 42 years, is not interested in any more treasures in wood for the house,
    so i may start to branch out at the local markets with some unusual items such as left handed spanners and sky hooks.
    hope to hear from you with any other items i could make.
    have a great NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL
    regards alan.

    Hi Alan
    And welcome to the vault. The vault of highly valuable tips tricks and sound advice. Don't say too load the you are/were a pom though.

    We have a friend in Tara. She is flooded in again. She lives on her own and breeds working dogs and cats. Tara is very flat and if someone spits into the waterways it floods. She has 2 litters of pups at the moment and a cat who going to drop any hour. The house is only just above flooding. She has water at her front door!! last year when they had floods she was marooned on 3 separate occasions due to the water
    We are too far away to help.
    But I suppose there would be a number of people in a similar situation.
    Just do it!

    Kind regards Rod
