@goosehd what have they (not) done?

[goosehd]

@ARNC Time to fill in pot holes on our laneway. Last minute call in sick excuses from everyone…

[ARNC]

@goosehd no wonder you’re narked! Is selective filling an opinion?

[goosehd]

@ARNC It is and does happen.

It’s about 1 km long privately owned and maintained…I’m about ready to not maintain it. No problem for my vehicle.

[Giles]

Get a tracked vehicle, that would have the added advantage of wearing the road out ever quicker....

[goosehd]

@Giles I like the way you think

[Matt]

I’d say destroy it with a military parade but the only tanks you guys have are filled with maple syrup.

[Tago Mago]

@Matt careful now, you’re headed towards a slippery slope

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago not slippery, maple syrup is sticky

[steelworker]

You need some Amish neighbors @goosehd !
Ferocious work ethic and the children will be out there every day raking and grooming the lane

[Giles]

And not dicking around on mobile devices

[goosehd]

@steelworker We have quite a few Mennonites around here and they work extremely hard. Best gardens I've ever seen were daily kept by the children with not a weed to be seen. Around St. Jacob Ontario, I watched a barn raising once. Amazing to watch with everyone having a role to play and they worked together better than I could imagine. There were no idle hands to be seen...

@tody sent by pony express to the local youths to post on the forum

@goosehd excellent, easier to catch the lazy sods if they’re stuck

[goosehd]

@tody …be careful as Sakura will need more antifoul applied at some point.

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd I thought that’s why you were invited in August?

[goosehd]

@steelworker …and they would do it without asking or being told to. Deep respect for how hard they work.

I've got an ex-Mennonite on my side. Really nice person, but on her phone regularly, not sooooo hard working and probably terrible in barn raisings.
