AND THEN MORE!




On my birthday Western Power in their wisdom decided to turn the power off all day! No cups of tea!!! whilst they cut some major trees down to protect the power lines...not happy bunnies!! but at least we were able to have more wood as we didn't have much did we!!! So as the 12 man cutting crew left a tractor arrived with great big chunks of wood to be axed up, Dad offered to start as I had quite spectacularly collapsed at the vets the day before and was tested for a stroke it appeared it wasn't a stroke, luckily but a really nasty virus which gives you all the symptoms and leaves you with vertigo for a few weeks, not very nice at all, I still keep falling over now!......., he was axing and I was shifting, he got through most of the pile and then the dreaded tractor came again with another huge load!!! It will be handy to keep warm, but somehow soul destroying to think you have finished a really hard job and then be back to square one!. So thanks Dad and great Gonzo face you made in the wood by accident but we are keeping him!
