Mr Chunky meet your new Friends

Post by Bretts »

I thought I would drag out some various English elms that I collected several years ago. I put them all together so they where easier to look after and thought they might even make a decent Forrest. I don't think it will do this stock any harm to have some free thinking so unlike Bodi and Mr Chunky I am going to start drinking as I defoliate. But no Scotch whisky for this Irish Aussie Mungrel, Jameson Irish Wiskey, so smooth :ugeek: And I brang it inside for the TV to entertain me :shifty:

Will give me something to look forward to
When I check the forum 2-3 times a night as I roll over in bed on the I-phone
Do they have Rehabs for bonsai addicts addicted to trees?

Never though a hobby could be so addictive !!

Ooops sorry about that I was using the iphone.
Try these, It is a big mess no matter which way I look at it. I was planning on selling this lot on and letting some one else worry about it :shifty:
Need to just sit and look for a while I think.
