Default Weekend Warriors; you gotta love us

if only for the entertainment value. I had some fun this last weekend. Go on, laugh at me, I know you want to:




We should play 'spot the best-practice/safety violations'. How many can YOU find in the image below?

Yeah bro, that's a 2m high ladder. I tried to stand with one foot on the kayak but it was too wobbly (I'm 6 months post knee reconstruction so have to be careful), so thought I'd play it safe and use a ladder.

Kickback? What is this 'kickback' you speak of? Never heard of it (prob' b/c those are $2 shop grade 0.5 yellow submarine earmuffs)- I am doing this job for love, not money bro, so no kickbacks for me!

That black knob on the cover is a thumb rest. Those stihl dudes think of everything, dontcha know!

I'm going to take up a part-time teaching role at the local polytech who are keen to learn the KiwiBro Hail Mary technique I've spent at least three days perfecting.
