    straw

    i got straw for building from a guy in coleambally nsw

    he is a lovely guy

    and will truck bulk orders

    you can find him on https://www.straw.com.au

    his name is trent

    some of the bales i got from him were a little spongy

    so if you want them for building it might be best to go and help pack them so you get good dense soilid bales

    ps i think i got some of the spongy ones cause they were donated to me (he was very generous 500 strawbales for free,, what a guy!!! )

    i know a very reputable builder who uses trents bales he is very anal and wouldnt exept any thing but the best

    Getting back to ducks and chooks getting on with a Grungie heavy metal rocker.I can deffinatly say that this is perfectly ok and Funny to notice .
    I love loud music and so do my chooks and my Kharki Cambells There hearing must be on different wave length then ours as noticed by cambells sitting next to speakers blaring out A.C.D.C they must be
    Acca Quacker fans huh.And Floyd my galah just loves anything loud as when my band practises at our house he just loves LOUD Pink Floyd..

    Not reccommended you just crank up the volume at once, just increase to desired volume.Then hope neighbers are out ....Im lucky as my neighber shouts for me to turn it UP lol

    She was standing at the load-in
    When the trucks rolled up
    She was sniffing all around
    Like a half grown female pup
    She wasn’t hard to talk to
    Looked like she had nowhere to go
    So I gave her my pass
    So she could get in and see the show

    Well I sat her down right next to me
    And I got her a beer
    While I mixed that sound on stage
    So the band could hear
    The more I watched her watch them play
    The less I could think of to say
    And when they walked off stage
    The drummer swept that girl away

    But rosie you’re all right -- you wear my ring
    When you hold me tight -- rosie that’s my thing
    When you turn out the light -- I’ve got to hand it to me
    Looks like it’s me and you again tonight rosie

    Well I guess I might have known from the start
    She’d come for a star
    Might have told my imagination not to run too far
    Of all the times that I’ve been burned
    By now you’d think I’d have learned
    That it’s who you look like
    Not who you are

    But rosie you’re all right -- you wear my ring
    When you hold me tight -- rosie that’s my thing
    When you turn out the light -- I’ve got to hand it to me
    Looks like it’s me and you again tonight rosie

    Jackson Browne



    I guess drummer :)

    Oh Christopher! I nearly fell off my seat laughing at images invoked by your song!!

    My partner, Glenn says that if you ever visit Australia you are more than welcome to drop by for a jam :wink:

    Cheers,
    Fran.

    Gotta have the music thumping full bore , windows and doors all open whilst you sow your Taga seeds Tam!

    I'm going to save up for a splitter thingamyjig and more speakers so I can put them out under the eaves of the house and "she shall have music wherever she goes"....
    Imagine milking the goat to Boccelli, or riding your horse to James Taylor, picking some sprigs of Cootamundra Wattle to John Williamson :lol: :lol:

    Fran,

    Thanks for the invite. When we eventually make it to Australia, we will visit with you, for sure. I have wanted to go to Australia for years, so may actually make it some day!

    Conversely, if you and/or Glenn make it to Belize, our farm has lots of extra beds, you'd be welcome to visit here, as well.

    I invited Tullymoor, but she says she doesn't fly. She could catch a boat to the Panama Canal, take a left, pass through Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala and into Belize, ya know... easy t'ing.

    This could be interpreted as an open invite to any and all a'yall in Oz to come visit. Our life is so isolated, and we love company. Even bad company generally makes an amusing story a month later... We have had several Aussie WWOOFers, and they further enhance the reputation Austalia has, reinforced by the quality of posters here. And, being partners in the commonwealth, Belize and Australia have a shared history, through England, which gave us democracy and tea time, though your ended up driving on the wrong side of the road. Anyway, we still have the Queen on the money, do you? How about a Governor General, and the Privy Council? We still have that!....... (Ladies and Gentlemen, please rise while Dave the Anarchist Chicken and the Swine Yard Worms do their rendition of God Save the Queen... I will ask that you all remain standing at your seats. Pigs attempting to stage dive will be converted to ribs and sausage. Thank you.....)

    (Elvis impersonator: "Thank you, Fran, thank you very much"..)

    Oh yes, this post started out about chooks and ducks. Looks like we all caught that flue going around, first identified by Dr. Frosty, Contagious Digressive Disease.... :lol: luckily, I don't think ducks or chooks can catch it.

    I think your's, Christopher would be a great mind to pick regarding systems and energy, not to mention music and food - two things that are also close to Glenn and my hearts :D

    Equally I suspect it would be wonderfully interesting to visit and perhaps offer a hand in all that you are doing in Belize, thank you for your invite.

    Yes, we still have the Queen on our money and a Governor General, we do not have access to the Privy Council though, the Australian High Court is our final court of appeal - New Zealand still does and I suspect that this is part of the pact made with the Mouri people - perhaps Australia not having access is due to the Australian Aboriginal not having the same privileges or perhaps rights in the government's (or dare I say our societies') view...but perhaps this is where my symptoms of the dreaded CCD will emerge so I will move on :wink:

    Cheers,
    Fran.
