        This is one thread I'll never understand. Does camelia have hidden meanings? Other than the Lady of the Camelias? Here it would be a heaven on earth to have a camelia in one's garden.

        • I wonder if I should have mentioned to finbar that i had my chainsaw in the ute when I was visiting.

          I could have demonstrated the correct use of it.

            You're welcome to this one, Wilderess! Come and get it before I send it to the Great Compost Heap In The Sky!

              Damn Hydey! Now you tell me! For crying out, Mrs Hydey could have distracted Mrs finbar inside with some sort of idle chit-chat while you popped out the back and did the deed!

                Thanks, but I don't have any bushes that need removing.
                I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                    • How about those limbs? Four's a bit extravagant, I'd've thought.

                        Sadly Sydney people with their sub tropical climate do not appreciate that.

                        This tree is at least 30 years old, a real beauty.

                        • Is it safe to assume that the pic you took of the - um, remains of the tree - didn't work?
