Uncle Benny was down recently and kindly offered to help with our growing list of things-to-do. Seeing as I can no longer do much lifting nor perch atop ladders poor Ronnie has been confronted with long lists every weekend so I think he was very glad to see the cavalry arriving in the form of Ben, armed with ladders, drills and bits-of-wood.
Going way beyond expectations Benny accomplished not only everything we had planned plus some, he even added his own personal touches to top it all off. Thus we have acquired not only a new passionfruit trellis for the back fence and a sturdy extension to our grape trellis but also two proud redgum chooks to preside over all backyard shenanigans.
