My choirmaster is a very quirky man and being a musician not known for his woodworking skills. However a couple of years ago put out a plea for wood. Floorboards pallets etc. As a result he built a summer house with a front decking. It’s very skew wiff and he’s named it the Wonky Lodge. It’s a masterpiece of odd workmanship and old wood! Everyone loves it and it’s a privilege to be invited to his evening soirées there.

Hi Si, what a great little creek for a mucklark! You guys just love mud and muck. There are many obstacles to get past too, mozzies, nettles, squiggly water thingies, and soooo much sludge. Some good finds. I was not surprised that you took the street sign, but was VERY surprised at how you got it looking so good in the end. What perseverance! Is there nothing you guys won’t do for a find!? Poor old Terry’s wet under-parts! Can he repair those waders or are another pair on the cards? Loved this video….as usual! Hooroo from downunder🦘😁
