Not another internet Gypsy tree butcher thread!

 

Just got back from a holiday in Sharm El Sheik, Egypt.

 

Besides being lazy and drinking cocktails on the beach, I managed to get some pictures of an Egyptian tree surgeon at work. Apparently the bags over the Dates are to protect them from being attacked/eaten by bugs.

It was between 30 and 35 in November mate, Just about right for me that, Still nice and warm but at 5pm it went dark in about 10 seconds :laugh1: well maybe 10 minutes but so fast it was madness,

 

That was only very slight draw back, having short day light.I loved it none the less, I did a fair bit of snorkelling just off the beach :thumbup1:
