Most of our stuff has names. How the boys think up some of them or deign to humiliate themselves by writing the names on them and then calling for them on site I don't know.

Picked a randomn saw from the box to take down to my mum's and it's called Tarquin. The little gravity fed timberwolf is called Francine. They reckon it wants to be a real chipper and be called Frank, but isn't man enough.

We have a new stumpgrinder called 'Doris' after our recently departed aunty who left us a legacy (which paid for our new machine).

Doris is a predator 450 - and I know the original Doris will be pleased to see what a great machine it is (thanks for the advice Theocus) - we 'enjoy' stumping now!
