Was booked to go today, but personal issues stopped me last minute. Now off to Oz for the ISA Annual Conference. Congratulations are obviously due to Jonesie for another great show.

I find this matter almost unbelievable, there must be some mistake. Thanks Tony for trying to sort this out. Let me know if I can help. Colin ISA International President Elect.

Hi John Sorry about delay in replying but only just got back from the States. I am not sure of the answer but I will make enquiries of the Chapter office and will get back to you. Colin

Barchams Conference - Dr Gary Watson
Colin Bashford replied to Amelanchier's topic in Tree health care
Hi Janey I am a little puzzled as to who you would have liked to meet? Gary is certainly worthwhile spending some time with as are all the keen arboricultural fraternity, but me ............. I do not usually have young ladies wanting to meet me, but hey I can dream!!!!!!! -
Barchams Conference - Dr Gary Watson
Colin Bashford replied to Amelanchier's topic in Tree health care
eponym - one who gives his name to things, institutions, places or in this case a Conference. Gary is tickled pink that he now has had a conference named after him. Cirencester, Steve looks most unlikely now as I am hosting Gary around the English Riviera. Hang in there we WILL have those beers soon. -
Barchams Conference - Dr Gary Watson
Colin Bashford replied to Amelanchier's topic in Tree health care
The whole day and the genrerous hospitality of Barchams was stupendous. Speakers brilliant and the networking between nearly 400 attendees (sorry Tony you must have been looking out of one eye) was unbelieveable. Gary Watson is now staying for a couple of days with us down South, so I will have to explain the word eponymous to him in the american lingo!!! -
Thanks for this service Steve. Much appreciated.

This is happening all too often. I am getting more and more such cases each year. Please, please lads and lassies remember tree work is always potentially dangerous. Think and think again before taking any action. I hear of so many such cases and accidents from around the world, that however does not make UK accidents easier to reconcile. Above all climb and work safely. My condolences to family and friends of our lost brother. Colin Bashford ISA International President Elect.

Enjoy the day Steve. Happy Birthday mate.

Colin Bashford replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in General chat
Hi Hamadryad Those of us with those very very special friends totally understand your grief and loss. You must however remember the good times and hopefully look forward to the next best friend. Cheers my friend. Colin -

I would certainly recomend it to all arborists. I will encourage the UK/I Chapter to take up the challenge.

Yep I was there and although the attendance figures were down a little the Conference and Trade Show wiped their faces. The reduced figures were however very good considering the economic climate. At this conference I was inaugurated in as ISA International President Elect for the next two years. I take over as ISA International President in 2011 in Sydney, now that is a fine place for a party!!!! Will welcome as many Brits as possible to show the ozzies how beer is really drunk and what parties are all about. See that you also met my old friend Don Blair. Now that is a man that can talk and has so many great tales to tell.
-
Glad you had a great time Steve. Maybe onetime you should try the ISA International Conference which is TCIA with conference, seminars, workshops and World tree climbing Championship added on and with fungi etc for Monkeyed.

Wow, wow, wow!!!!! Still not sure what Frank Rinn means by the use of this word. Maybe it's lost in the translation! Thanks Tim:thumbup1:
