: It was a joke guys! Sheeesh! LOL
: During my first week in OZ I was a little insulted that one of the guests at
: a barby said he'd help me drag a picnic table from one side of the yard to
: another. "I don't need help to move a picnic table!", was my
: retort. He looked at me kinda funny and said "Right Mate!" then
: got a big grin. I thought I hurt myself when I just grabbed an end and
: started pulling, and it didn't move. When he stopped laughing the guy took
: the other end and we got the damn thing across the yard. Yup, it was
: jarra. We use spruce or cedar up here in the frozen north, and it's about
: 1/2 the weight.
