Country Clips

Good Friday at my in-laws' farm in Blyth, South Australia:


The old tank had about 10 cms of concrete in its base, the remains of which ended up on the trailer (see above), and the new tank had to be carefully manouevred over my father-in-law's native shrubs (see below); for this we employed the leading-edge technolgy of old tyres, old cushions and dusty carpet squares.


Fairest-and-Best for the day went to fifty-five-year-old Ian Roberts, for his tireless efforts on the sledge-hammer and pole-driver-thingie; Coach's Award to Jeremy Kells, for his valiant and consistent work; and Most Improved (aka come-back-next-year-for-another-crack) to yours truly.
