I hold you all personally responsible.
« on: March 12, 2005, 04:45:42 am »
Well,

Tonight, I was standing in my kitchen, quietly chopping up the skippy for dinner, when my man walks past me, and gazes lovingly out the back door.

Softly, ever softly, he says...  "I wonder how much wood there'd be in the Macadamia Tree?".    :o

Now this tree, is HUGE...  It's FULL of Macadamias, and the kids spent half the afternoon out there with a brick and a mallot cracking Macadamia shells and munching...

I say YOU lot did this to him...    ;)

He was NORMAL before he started reading this forum...

Well, OK, You caught me out, He was Never Normal, but then neither am I...   :)

By way of introduction, HI! I'm asy!   

Andrew will introduce himself in a later post, I'd imagine...

Seriously, though, have been reading your forum for a week or two now (lurking) and it's fantastic. I am very impressed by you all.

We are just about to move to a farm of 60 acres, and I'm hoping to save some of the trees...   Please tell him he can't cut them all down...  :)

He's totally addicted to the forum, and is having a great time and learning lots.

Looking forward to getting to know you better.

asy :D

Hi Asy and welcome to the forum

And I have NO Idea what macadamia timber is like... I do know how to find out though  ;) :D

Oh.. and if you plant 2 trees for every one you cut down, you wont run out  8)

hehe Thanks Ian...

Yeah, this replanting thing... 

It has us spending the day tomorrow driving around the Sunshine Coast looking at Timber Farms.

Should be fun, am taking the camera...

I'm not sure if he wants to plant the forest just so he has an excuse to cut stuff down and mill it, or if he actually wants a forest!!! hehe...

What worries me is that the farm backs onto State Forest, so if he gets over excited, there's not much to stop him! hehehe

asy :D

Well on further consideration.. Macadamia nuts are rather nice, so dont cut that tree down, well at least not untill you have got 2 new ones bearing fruit ;)

  Welcome, Asy.

  Play ya cards right, and, maybe you can wrangle a trip to the US for some hands on sawing drill. Disney World is only 1½ hours from here.  ::) ;D :D :D

Welcome  Asy  Since Andrew has been lurking for a while, he'll probably tell you that the best way for you to save some trees is stickered and stacked.

Love your cat.  I'm sure our local chinese restaurant will have some dog recipies  they could share with you as they just got prosecuted for having cats in theis freezers. :D :D :D :D

Hehehe..

Reciprocal touring sounds fantastic!!!

Geez, I might get Andrew to take me overseas yet!!!  Who knew it would take a buzz saw and a pig roast???!!!

You'd never know, I'm actually more of a dog person than a cat person (Unless you have the right sauces) :D !!!

The avatar I usually use on my other forum was too stoic, and I found this one which I thought was a lot more fun...

I must say, you all sound like a really great bunch of people, and we're looking forward to getting to know you all better.

Well, soon, we'll have 60 acres on the GORGEOUS Sunshine Coast Hinterland (Hi Sigidi!!!) Y'all are welcome, BYO axe...

asy :D

Hi guys, I'm Andrew.

As Asy has said I've been lurking here and have become totally engrossed with all the content, and characters on the forum.   ::) :P

Since the Macadamia is producing well, I think it is safe (it better keep producing  ;D)

I best go,  We are about to leave to do a day tour (put on by our dept of Primary Industries) of sunshine coast farm forrests

Thanks guys


Andrew

I never got anything "bad" from hanging out in this forum, only makes me want to plant more trees and make more time to spend outdoors.... makes me want to run my chainsaw more so I can annoy my city slicking neighbors  8)

great bunch of guys around here, even if they don't approve of Grits.
