I think we've exposed it several dozen times in the last 50 some odd pages. It's always nice to see new folks getting the hook though

Hey judylou, what's your favourite drink, whether alcoholic or not.

Mine is definitely beer.

Yeah, they can get those grabs for the crane booms now and just climb/cut ... really top class stuff.

Mine's a G&T.
My 3 little girls are well and truly old enough to be producing their own little ones. I look forward to that!

Thanks for starting this thread ekka.

Beautiful days down here - Im probably goiong sailing today.

I've been up all night researching, to try and stop the structural engineers from cutting down my Avocado.

Seems like tree root pruning is pretty easy to do but not very good for the tree.

chelzeagirl · 13th May 2009, 12:23 AM

Hi first time here was hoping to get help in finding out whats wrong with the next door neiboughs tree its got this wierd furry stuff on it i need to take a pic as i cant explain it to well ,
its covered in green fly also ands leaving loads of nasty sappy sticky stuff all over the place hope someone can help me ;-)

Knothead56 · 17th May 2009, 10:40 PM

Thank You Ekka,
It is going about as fast as I want it to. I don`t do a whole lot anymore
except cut firewood or an ocassional troublesome tree for someone and play with my grandson. I am not anywhere near the level of most of the Tree World members. Have worked in sawmills,cut pulpwood,and worked in and around wood most of my life, but I am only certified with the school of hard
knocks.That is about all I have to say. Have a good day, Knothead56

Treeson · 17th May 2009, 10:53 PM

Just got back from quick travel through San Francisco and Canada, had a great time. Feels weird going from autumn/fall to spring then back to autumn/fall in the period of a month.

Time to get back to work and lose some weight after putting on about 8 kilo's drinking and eating north american style.

TrevMcRev · 19th May 2009, 01:11 AM

Hey GrandPa, congrats mate, ya must be proud as punch!

We had another trevmcrev jnr a couple of weeks ago.

Another little boy, named Jack, little brother of nearly 16 mth old Billy.

Got me a groundcrew now

Funny how overnight little Billy became a giant!

Tom Beerens · 19th May 2009, 01:34 AM

I am going real well, glad you asked

Congrats on your new edition Trev, funny you say how big they get over night, I was looking at my grandson thinking the same thing.

Another thing I observed, was a scene from the Simpson's that played out in my life with my grandson Gabriel...he just started to say granddad and it nearly went unoticed because his sister had the lime light.

Poor little bloke is feeling dejected at the moment but hey if you come from a big family which I do you know how he feels.

I can still remember when my little brother came along.

All the best Trev, look after them.

Raven · 19th May 2009, 12:45 PM

Hi everyone!

Just got out of the hospital with heart attack and etc and tons of awful tests.
Good news is I am on correct heart meds. Oxygen to my brain does me in for being dumb!! It's all good. I am very encouraged and looking forward to a few more quality years.
I missed all of you folks. You have been the best site I have found.
Good to be back.
Best to all of you.
Cheers!
Raven

Eric Frei · 19th May 2009, 10:07 PM

Dude!

A heart attack, that some serious stuff ... so WTF happened?

And what now ... new heart, lifestyle change, bypass, stent?

Just nosey.

phill ellison · 23rd May 2009, 07:55 PM

we are having a bad storm here at the mo, we had a few callout, one car had a large branch landed on it and a another one were a large willow tree landed across some driveway. the funny part about it all was that every time my lovely wife just make me a nice hot cut of tea the bloody phone will ring for the callout and now she not making any more cut of tea for me

Don in LA · 24th May 2009, 06:49 AM

Ekka,

It's going fine. Thanks for the welcome. Just a few too many trees in the rear yard. I hate to cut trees down but these tall pines are a little too close for comfort in hurricane country. Hurricane Gustav left me with about 6 downed trees and another 6 leaners that I had to take down. Drink of choice? Beer is my number one, especially after working up a good sweat. I do like wine occassionally. I've even made a couple of batches of wine from fruit trees(crab apple, pear) growing on my land. Other stuff: I'm helping my son build a dredge for cleaning out his boat slip, and we recently set out a catfish trot line. My son picked up 5 catfish both today and yesterday.

Have a good one.

Don
