Mate that's pretty savage mate $:-\$

Tarrodemierda · **Reply #699 on:** November 23, 2008, 10:57:52 PM

psssst....

well one cracked,and we must saw it,as its now layin against our yard-shack that gas storage rooms and sauan in it,and power cable runs there too for lights.

i wont sleep tonight a minute i bet.

theres now one tree,i hear,blocking road from one direction of the two routes to us,do the fire departement has to take that down for the cars to be able to go thru road,to city etc.

its a bloody cold mess here now,inside and out as the cable that was cut by falling tree,was one supplying the oil heating and staircase lights etc.i hope the electricity wont be all-off tonight,caus ei dont want my pets and girlfriend to freese,i can manage though but i feel a lot better if they dont gave to be feelin chilly willy.

Just came to this one mate. Stay safe and stay warm, cutting down trees in a storm sounds hazardous.

well good morning.

my scene here has totally changed in one night in my eyes a,s 7 trees crqcked or had to be cut during night,and last 4 hrs ive been choppin this one thick old birch into 40 cm stumps,to get em bit lighter to move,and another one is waiting,but my chainbsaw ran out of fuel,and the cahin is dead,as its been sharpened few times durin night and now theres nothin to sharpen in teeths anymore.well its oa good supply of fire wood but man it was chilly job in 10-17 m/s swirling wind,in middle of spikey snow rain.i had to take girlfriend and my pets to our yard-building,for night as it can be heated with wood as the house is cold now.one vw bug got crushed in our yard by fallin tree too,but that wasnt in anyones use but still...it was in good running condition,i hear.

im exhausted,really exhausted

Mikko Now just go get some sleep! That is a long night for ya. Unfortunatly the snow whould be falling here soon, and While I usually love it I am kinda worried this year about getting it out of the drive. By the way I hope your car wasnt hit!

well....unfortunately i had my friends opel stw in long loan,i had it caus ei had to move stuff as we just moved here and we really needed 4 wheels for a week or two,but the damn tree crushed the bumper,driving lights,hood,front fenders and cracked the front...window too.big bill comin,big bang from nerves coming.i hope i can hussle the insurance stuff with my friend,he doesnt take it as my fault luckily.but now hes without his secondary vehicle that was in use of his wife.

if i remember to take i might snap a pic of my night-job,theres quite huge amount of chopped birch in yard,and im about to chop some half of it today as well,into stove sized smaller bits.

hawkchucker · **Reply #704 on:** November 24, 2008, 10:48:08 AM

Wow Bummer on the friends car, but I am sure He will se it as the Insurance company will. An act of God. Ya cant fight Mother Nature she is a bitch!

Glad you are safe, stay warm and rest you deserve some shut eyes after what you went through.

Tarrodemierda · **Reply #706 on:** November 24, 2008, 06:49:22 PM

,as it went thru my wallet so hard too.

donvito · **Reply #707 on:** November 24, 2008, 06:55:17 PM

Glad you survived through the night. You're probably the most equipped for the storm on your block, if not the whole town.

Tarrodemierda · **Reply #708 on:** November 24, 2008, 07:47:07 PM

what do u mean?

well im sure that not every one here carries a chainsaw,axes and stuff but i do live off the city now,so its not bad to have some quipment already for cases like this

This is all about 100m from my house.

Many enjoy the Surge for its heavy duty pliers or one hand opening blades.
Sailors & fishermen however value it for its true purpose - small ship's anchor.
