    Thanks Plassy, I was so proud of her when she did the phone interview with Peter from the weekly times, spoke very well & didn’t miss a beat. You’ve hit the nail on the head- contrary to what the public are told our industry is highly regulated & constantly scrutinised & audited. The term ‘illegal logging’ that's thrown around so freely has nothing do with us just going & cutting trees down wherever we please as so many people interpret it- 99% of the time it’s a paperwork error or technicality. As you said the alternative is imported timber with NO restrictions or environmental guidelines but it’s not in our back yard so everyone’s conscience is clear.

    Bloody love how you've got "& Kids" signwritten on your rig mate. Says a lot about your family!

    What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

    Love You & Your Beautiful Family Sprockstar
    Victoria is where the Major Debacle Argument is at IMHO
    Our own selfish little industry is already setting its sights on Queensland with far less Red Tape but 10 times the locally grown sustainable timber………..at a minimum $$$$$$ haulage diesel cost, Carbon Footprinty’s
    Easier to keep it Sustainably Local I would Recommend

    G`Day Sprock, mate.

    I hope you don`t mind, but I`ve posted young Indiana`s story on another forum (very small and all good folk)
    You gotta be bloody proud of that lassie.
    Wishing her and all you folk the best, and I hope the greens turn brown and are flushed away.

    Yeah no dramas Pearcey- like I told Plassy- it’s all over the internet so there’s nothing to hide.

    Thanks mate. Its about time these so call intelligent people got out in the real world , got their hands dirty , learnt how their so called renewables worked. I recon that when they were at school their teacher must have had a very weak arm or their aim was pretty bloody poor with the old duster.
    All the best and I hope some one can knock some sense into these clowns.

    FWIW: Our Ex-GM used to be extremely high up with GunnaaaaSoons timber..global.
    As the earlier story goes, massive Australian financial roadblocks were constantly put in place. So much so they diligently worked with Royal Melbourne ZOO to pump Millions into a sustainable ‘Leadbeaters’ - Possum extinction breeding program. Every single Multi-Mega Dollar ‘Leadbetter’ born died within months of tagged release.
    The reason was that Native LBP’s are by NATURE extremely ‘Allusively’ Territorial and didn’t Appreciate the already still & Always there selectively harvested corridors built against Rivals.
