You're a champ Woody.. Bless your kind heart my friend. (Make it a big fire!)

Not a problem Ridgie ... just means everyone else is on fire wood collection for the rest of the trip ... :sarcastic:

:cheers!:

oh, and for the late comers will we put out the :welcome: sign for you - a fire to rest your weary selves.

I don't know about that Woody... You're the only one on the trip that is fully certified in safe chainsaw operation.
 
If I can book into a blocksplitting course tomorrow however, I'll give you a hand splitting some logs though.

so is scotty - hes done it through the CFA ...

but anyone can scavange through the layers of snow to find wood - not all of it needs to be cut up ...

Are you sure about that surely there is a course you can do for "search and retrieval of combustables in alpine conditions" I wouldn't think just any one could do it. You must need a badge of some decription:sarcastic:
 
heath ... if i look through the DSE web site i'll probably be able to find the appropriate form to fill in so that we can lift a piece of wood from the State forrest. But the problem is that once i fill the form in, we will need to use the paper to help start the first fire on Friday - so i thought i'd just bring a newspaper to use instead. Save the non-recycliable pens for another day.
 
Pretty soon we will be known as the VNOG Boy Scouts (or Girl Guides - depending on your preference)........a badge for this and a badge for that.

We are still yet to run the "Escape from a zipped tied swag" course, or the popular "Effecient use of peanut butter".

I failed the badge for "putting meat in a camp oven" but I blame that on my mentor who was not watching what I was doing.

Woody - you've got to remember some of us 'public servant' types don't like to get our hands dirty and will go to great lengths to avoid manual labour.

Or even dancing on a gas lantern pole
 
Thanks Onlock!

The Gogo and I have a very clear understanding about the use of bad language and he has started me towards my Clean Language badge. We have made significant progress from my earlier indiscretion. Both of us are now aware there is no need for it, and a campaign for a no swear policy is underway with a view that it will soon be introduced to all VNOG events, and I expect we will be running a seminar at the National Muster.

Swearing will not be tolerated in my Navara - especially if Mrs Heata supplies her fantastic Anzac biscuits.
