Photos of you/your work from days of yore.

I know Steve did a thread like this but I cannot find it.

 

Pre digital ones, rarely taken, hidden in a draw.

 

Here’s me around 97/8  Ford P100 plus homemade trailer taking away the hedge tops, no saw trousers, helmet, chipper or  a care in the world by the look of me, pleased as punch!

A couple taken back in 1990.  Mobile processor converting the whole trees we skylined into short wood for the mills.  Probably still  got that shirt in a drawer somewhere

A mate sent me this from the Golden jubilee parish mag 2002.

 

Big wheels/tyres on a non turbo hilux made it a bit of a slug, but looked good.

I was thinking that but held my tongue, it was different in the days of yore

1997. Logging old growth, I really wanted to be a faller so I had to come in on my days off if I wanted a go.

 

I remember my boss saying " next time you are in town, pick up a 36". That ment he trusted me enough to fall on my own, I practically danced around the forest that week.

I have a similar photo of me felling in the Sahara Forest.
