I hate taking down branches from trees, I always get sawdust in my eyes, (yes, I know I should wear goggles but what the hell!!) as you do when you stand under the branch you are sawing away at.  scared2:

Yes I heard it ~ Wonderful stuff .... I must rip a copy of my CD of Stanley Holloway monologues for you ~ assuming that you like him. They'll give the Boy a few laughs (and you some questions to answer I don't doubt) but perhaps Albert and the Lion might not be a good idea  eeek:
