had a customer of mine move over there,, wanted to take his woodworking machines over there and his stock of wood ,, he had toget special movers in who sorted out what i think was some sort of radiation treatment on the machines so no wood diseases could get over there into there natural enviroment ,, wood was a no no ,,

 

i wish this country was a bit more like that with what they let in as imports

If you leave your antarctic toothfish at home, make sure you leave a couple of your anti-personel mines protecting it or someone might have it away!!:thumbup1:
