ABPA - Australian Bush Poets Association

Have a good trip Dave.

When you are out in the bush you feel wild and free
but take care not to set up camp under a tree.
For those big gums shed branches as many will know
the outer limbs weaken as the tree seems to grow.


One good breeze is enough for one to dislodge
and when your asleep there is no chance to dodge.
So find a nice camp spot in a big open acre
and stay well away form the old widow- maker.

Off to do another show ( Break a Leg )

Hi Ho Silver awaaaaaaaaaaay

Bob.

I have red gums here and they are notorious. (Good word that, notorious!) I recall a young Scout being killed at a camp that my child had attended (not at the same time thank goodness). A Coolibah tree might be safer Dave.

Oh, Neville, see what you've done now. You've gone and made everyone really sad...

Thanks eveyone, we intend to watch the star show evey night we are there Marty. Neville, Heather, Bob, which ever tree just remember that old Aussie saying "she'll be right mate", if one is going to worry about the possibility of a falling branch then, I may as well just cocoon myself inside my house but that's not me...

Nice bit of verse Maureen & Bob...

Oo I did not, Heather.

I am filled with envy.

"Have a great time"
Jim.

Yeah David j an' I'll just stay here in the rain n cold.

TTFN

Have a good one mate.
