    1 woman and a crowbar

    DO NOT ATTEMPT this at home...be warned...dangerous and could cause you harm if you attempt to intervene.

    Yesterday I started yet another enterprise. I am well known for trying to do difficult shit myself (bugger having any help), managed to take apart 100 metres of decking, 5 metres high in places (almost lost the dog a couple of times), mostly single handedly last summer, and then replace it with some help from hubby. Damn I am HOT with a wrecking bar!
    This year it is the turn of the new house to get one last piece of outside landscaping done...yes.... it is a fence!
    Now most of the house has a fence...but one area HAD a very old part that needed some seeing to..... so see to it I did.

    Hand me the wrecking bar, a few swearwords and burly muscles, plus a little bit of intelligence to figure out the quickest and most appropriate way to remove said fence, and 1 hour later it is down..... yes me a person of the female persuasion is quite capable of destroying a fence. It is not just in the domain of the males of the species to want to destroy something and then lord it over the remains. Pieces of timber & nails all neatly stacked in a pile, oh yeah and theres a dog chewing on some remains she found....happy as!

    So now there is this tree you see.....

    Guess all I have to do now is put up a new one... one thing at a time ok?

    Cool

    Wohooooo, You go girl.......................


    Yeah I demolished a playhouse (6' x 9' x 6' high) out the back recently..
    I took to it with the sledgehammer and whacked the shit out of it..
    Down it came... I had only built it, 23 years ago...
    so it did what it was supposed to do..

    I've built many a fence and decks....
    Painted the inside and outside of my home as well...

    Give me a hammer, nails and skillsaw... and see what I can do with it.

    See guys, we gals can do anything....

    Guys....be afraid. Be very afraid.
    Well done you lasses
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Shit..... Please don't teach MissSniper anything. You saw what she did without a weapon
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Nice work though ladies! There's just something about a woman with a crowbar with a slightly manic look in her eyes...
    Soapbox house of cards and glass, so don't go tossing your stones around.
    You musta been.... high. You musta been...

    .. pee over it...

    Hey seriously - well done re the new fence etc. Good job! I wish more kiwis actually were DIYers, rather than just claim to be DIYers.

    NEWS FLASH :small tribe of amazonians found in christchurch

    A perverse hatred for aged woodwork can not be explained at this time - but it is suspected that they take in some nuitritional benefit from their destructions.

    it was odd... barely even any swearwords...
    the pickets were easy and just a couple of hits with the sledgehammer for each of the rails...and i thought it was still fairly stable apart from the bottom rotten wood.

    of course!
    It may not be neat or tidy, but can be done

    I don't do wood - if it can't be welded heated and bent,cut to size with a gas axe and trimmed on a grinder...then I get in a man with big thighs and a small brain.
