    Default Shavings Wanted in Victoria

    I received the following EMAIL from a person in Morwell. I do not know this person however they seem quite genuine and they have given me their permission to post their Email.


    Hi,

    I live in Morwell Vic. I am a breeder of rats for our local community. I normally have a wood turning friend up here in which I get all my shavings from to house my rats but due to less work load for him (an other commitments) I am running very low.

    My question to you is if there are any members or your self, to which I can pick up some wood shavings. I am willing to travel to get some. I supply me own bags and do all the shovelling. I hope that I am not being too rude in asking but I am all out of ideas.

    We went to an exhibition at Jeff's shed once and another member gave this idea if at anytime we needed extra. I guess I didn't need it until now. I will be in Melbourne next on the 24th of October but if any is available earlier I can come down this weekend.

    I hope you can help or suggest anything else.

    Thanks

    I will send them an email, think I've got three 200lt bags full now and will have at least another two before the end of the week.
    Cheers

    DJ, if you're coming to our BBQ next Sunday you could get them collected from here.

    May be more direct for the "customer".


    The beatings will continue until morale improves.

    Looks like mine go out to the garden again, then.

    Soon I'm gonna have to build a ramp so I can harvest the strawberries...
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.
