Happy New Year

[terje439]

Hope it will be a great one for all. I also hope for a better year for everyone in the entertainment industry (if not, we will be left with only Bieber and Cyrus by 2018 I fear).

Anyway, as is customary, I tend to add a song in this post. Feeling generous this year however, I will give you the choice between THIS or THIS.


HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL!

[Franciscus]

Happy new all. After my New years Day experience I have at least started the year on a good note.
This is the story and a very friendly one it is.
A year or so ago we bought a couple of acres of land in a nice country town in the fruit bowl area of Victoria. Just over a month ago we got a notice from the shire cut the grass or else. After to speaking to the shire and telling them that I couldn't get up there until the New year they gave me an extension to get the job done. So on New years day I loaded my trusty little ride on onto the back of Ute and chugged off to the block, thinking the grass would mostly weeds and they would between a half and one metre high at worst, by judging what we'd seen on our last visit (no grass and just sporadic clumps of weeds). AHH sooo wrong it almost 2 metres high and much thicker than one could imagine, and not many weeds. Couldn't even see the top of the Ute, according to the neighbour. I jumped onto my ride on and started the task, slowly I cut channel through from one side to the other, about 100 meters boundary to boundary. Then I cut a path around the perimeter and thought to myself this 2/3 hour task is going to take 4 to 5 times longer than I anticipated, off I went again for another sweep, I was almost around again when I caught a glimpse of my wife waving fanatically through the grass, as she approached I stopped and to my relief, she explained she had just spoken to our young neighbour ( we had only met him once before), to be, and he was going to get his tractor and slash the grass for us.
Two hours later he finished cutting the grass, well we were so grateful. I was prepared to pay a considerable amount and I asked him how much he would like, the answer was simple and most humbling aw just replace my diesel. So off we went in his Ute and filled up his jerry can, on the way we met a few of the town's folk who he introduced me as his new front neighbour, oh what a wonderful start to the new year. Happy New Year again and I hope fellow posters can post some other stories such as mine, that has given them a great start to 2017.
Sorry if this post was a bit of ramble, but I just needed to express how grateful I was and to let people around the world that goodwill is still around.[:)]
