Pay Back Time

Our dear 'French' friends kindly left us with a pretty big timber pile as a result of our joint efforts in September 2010
We were planning on tackling it fairly soon although we were kind of hoping to borrow Andrew's quad to bring it down to the house. Fran however had other plans. Andrew was not going to lend us his quad on this occasion, he would log it all and bring it down to the house for us. No amount of arguing would change their minds - in their view this is pay back for help with sheep and cattle (which is very willingly given because, strangely we enjoy that kind of thing) and occasional help with hens. Anyhow, our chainsaw decided to die this week, so actually, it really was a huge favour - and a family do as well.

Now THAT's what friendship is all about!

    Do you need to borrow our hydraulic log splitter?
