Thanks Colin,
I'll write that one on the shed wall.

Cheers, Mick.

I think I'd be asking said mate if he nicked the bush drift. Me? A suspicious bastid? No way.

Where would we be without shed walls to write on?

Where I live is a former agricultural property with a huge shed for Vehicles, Horse stables, Packing etc

Scrawled on the corrugated iron walls in chalk, are details of chemical brews that were used way back then with some not so nice ingredients in most ie. 2-4-5-T for Blackberry eradication, 20oz to 100 gallons of water. etc, reminder dates when the Piston pressure pump leathers were replaced, names, bearings greased & misc other details. Other notes are becoming faded now.

Not quite a history of this place but was well on the way.


It seems one of the problems with 245T was erectile dysfunction but as they all seemed to have large families it didn't appear to bother them.


Sorry to go OT.

Cripes.....did they write that on the shed wall too!

Cheers, Mick.
