Productive day out powelltown way, collected a great load of timber, with zero rot and I don't believe any termites. I'm not sure what timber it is though, it's nice and dense, but far paler in colour almost straw-like than the goldish or pinky messmate I normally find. Hopefully good burning!http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/05/87.jpg

I'm pretty happy with my collection for the year, but of work though! Just under 30 cubic metres.

Nah hopefully it is at least enough for this season and the next as well. It means I can start cutting green wood which will give me 2 years to dry it out and then it should burn well.

What made me happy today?
Two things, first one was reading this, it is deadset piss funny https://www.thebelltowertimes.com/pe...YyO2HyqZ-Ky_X4
That’s a mad pile of wood there Winston 👍🏻 Big Firewood stacks are like porn to me - only people with a wood heater who collect their own wood would understand - you see a big pile of firewood & get excited haha what’s with the bought bag of firewood ? Bit worried all that was not enough so bought that bag just to be sure ? Haha
Hahahhaha @the evil twin that’s a pisser , “ he will have her knolickers so monsoonal the UN will have to send aid 🤣
I know exactly what you mean lol, when we were in Tassie we were driving around talking on the radio going PHWOAHHHH check out that firewood pile at that guys house! Those guys are next level over there.
Haha did an overnight trip a few weeks ago to a place with no firewood collection, forgot to take some do grabbed it on the way only to find a huge stack of firewood been left there.

Lucky it was only a bit of a singe. @Woof, can you lend Mark your forum name for a bit?
Really glad I was almost fully covered up, boots, jeans, jacket, hat as every exposed part coped a singe....even the back of my head backdraft somehow [emoji51]
Should’ve left my fly/zipper open for a bit of free manscaping minge [emoji23]

Minge singe. It could catch on. Pardon the Pun:)
Hahhahaa @mudnut that’s a pisser . Years ago when I had my big tree trimmer machine I was working away & watching an old bloke ( 80 odd ) trying to light the big pile I’d heaped up - he was gingerly try to splash a bit of fuel in a plastic 20lt container towards the smouldering fire , I watched him do this 3-4 times so I came over - full of bravado & said ‘let me do that for ya’ , before he could say a word I’d grabbed the container & splashed a heap of it towards the fire & it hit the flame & exploded - launching me a couple of metres backwards arse over tit . When I regained composure & smelled the drum I said ‘fuck me mate that’s petrol ! ‘ he looked at me with a wry smile & said “ why do you think I was being so careful lad “ hahaha I’ll never forget that
Covid test negative today, but QLD Border restrictions let the Emerg response Officer on site direct me to cancel my return to site until the travel restrictions ease, so more time in Melb - yeeeee Haaaaa. Might just finish the last item on the list before going back.

More firewood collecting. Did it with some neighbours. Absolutely smashed it with three blokes onsite. Also, airbag man airbags helped alot this time, last load same size I was almost on the bump stops and knocked em under larger bumps, this time the car didn't sag at all.
I can't say the same for the territory that was with us lolhttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/06/41.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/06/42.jpg
