    Default The Big Tree.

    Hi Carl,
    Hate to sound like an ass, but I suppose you mean Kauri & not Karri. Or maybe I've got it wrong & you do mean Kari.
    Regards,
    issatree.

    You all knew what bloody tree he was talkin about

    It's funny you know, I've had someone PM me telling me to alter punctuation (was a bit miffed by it) the best part was he thought he'd already PM'd about it and was doing it again as I hadn't changed what he felt I should!!! ???

    So bloody what fella's? really like none of us have 'issues' for others to see - you never know Carl is already talking about that drastic operation to improve his spelling.
    I love my Lucas!! ...just ask me!
