[Robster]

Wonderful tucker, not just the kids who would love it! :wavemulticolor:

[robbiegal]

Thanks for the bread pics especially
Is that called a camp oven that you baked it in?

Looks brilliant
What a top pop you are
Good to see a regular man showing the kids how well men cook

I installed a satellite dish this afternoon. While up on the roof I had a look around, as you do and saw this...

That should keep them going for a few winters. There is more similar, out of sight, behind the shed.

[robbiegal]

your wood?

they are madly burning off around here - koran forrest
i really don't know why they don't prepare the wood for people to use in winter fires

the council could even make money from it rather than fill the city surrounds & air with heavy smoke for weeks on end

In lots of places it is illegal to remove timber from the forest and yet they do controlled burns to remove the fuel, Isn't red tape a wonderful thing :dash1:
Anyway I suppose it is better that it is burnt now than in the middle of summer

One of my Granddaughters straps for a few Racehorse owners and she has been given an Ex racehorse that she is "Agisting" in our House paddock.
As the feed in the paddocks at this time of year here is very thin on the ground and the new stuff coming up hasn't got much "Guts" in it we have been feeding Him hay.
This attracted one of the Shetland ponies that the neighbour has and it looks like "Manhattan" has found a Mate to hang about with.
The Shetland is a cheeky little bugger and I have put him back in his own paddock twice now but the little sod keeps coming back.
Ah well looks like I will just have to get extra hay for Manhattan's Mate :angel:

Good stuff Trout .... We've got the eight little ones (4 stallions & 4 mares) and one thoroughbred mare, who was being trained as a racehorse before we bought her (a bit too spirited I think). We had our thoroughbred mare before we started with the little ones, our first one being a stallion. They were together for about 18 months before we got our little mares, which was years ago now. Funnily enough even though they are all in together (apart from Mum & little one), the thoroughbred mare and the first stallion are inseparable and are always within about 20m of each other, whereas the remainder could be anywhere, but usually in a group. The answer an obvious question of what happens when the big mare comes in season is yes .... he wants to and actually gets his front legs on her rump but that's about as close as he gets. "Missed by that much". :laugh2:

Did/does the cheeky little bugger have any company in his own paddock?  If he doesn't, there's the answer.  I'd say you've been adopted. :angel:

OLD school fibrous plasterer. As an apprentice in the sixties I was sent to the cake shop to buy some randy tarts. Sent to the hardware store to buy stripped paint a left handed screwdriver and some skyhooks.

[JeffH]

And don't forget to bring back the elbow grease.

[Triggersmob]

and the long weight (long wait).

[Goldseeker]

What about getting a "grease monkey" or a "packet of electrical charge".

Me thinks the "stripped" should read "Striped".

[serenitystan]

''Yeah"' Goldseeker Ime a bad speller. Due to a ill-spent youth shootin pool at Fatmans snooker room.

Such a sweet story
Me thinks old man Trout is a soft hearted bloke and will keep getting extra hay for tge little fella

My little sister  used to do early morning strapping work.at Randwick when she first moved to sydney years ago
Then she'd head off to her day iob in fashion
I think the strapping made her feel that she still had some country in her!
