I think Bermy Girl will be very disappointed with your answer, MB!

Yes, I was thinking the same thing, but being a caring, sharing moderator, I was just gently trying to steer (steer=male neutered cow - excuse the pun ) her back onto the straight and narrow.

Don't want NZIS looking in and thinking we grow 'grass' or is it 'weed' (or both, as there's plenty of them, too) on our land or our application, whenever we get round to making it, will be out the window along with Shell's.

This forum's getting to be a jumpy place with us worried that NZIS is reading it with pen and pad in hand, jotting down notes as fast as.

Yes, I always knew those calcium tablets would get the better of me one day.

Well MB, as I'm not a cow (although have been called one several times...those men just have no sense of humour),I shall pass on the grass offer! I'm not too disappointed though because I don't actually consume any mind-altering chemicals, including calcium tablets...although I have been known to consume caffeine in large quantities! I figured out almost 16 years ago that I was actually crazy enough without adding any drugs to the situation... I'm usually the one going off the rails at parties sober as a judge...

You should be fun to watch then after we've spiked your tea/coffee with some mind-altering drugs when you visit us.

You're getting worried about us now aren't you

Not to worry...contingency plan in place! I just might be very very thirsty when I leave... Perhaps I'll just bring my own...

I will definitely be driving because as nice as the holes in the paddock sound...hhhhmmmm...I do have a warm house and my own bed to sleep in when I get to PN...
