Just a quick note....I will be off line for a few days unless the hotel has an internet connection. I have a 80 foot tree across my roof. Shoot.... sorry to hear that. I hope you are well and that you don't loose too much money over this... .... and on the bright side - pull that chain saw out Rudi - free firewood in large amounts waiting just for you! Looks like a job for the Primrose Insurance Co. Any base campers want to give us a hand, while Rudi rebuilds? ![]() |

Any base campers want to give us a hand, while Rudi rebuilds? ![]() and the answer was no! Time then for another batch of interestingCOCONUTfacts. ![]() 79 The COCONUT milk, which is the product of the expressed juice of the grated endosperm (the white stuff), was popular during World War II and was used as a substitute for cow's milk. ![]() 80 COCONUT water consists of 95% water, holding in solution proteins, sugars and salts. It is used as a diuretic. 81 Recent research at the University of Iceland, shows that lauric acid is present in COCONUT water. This is also present in human mother's milk. 82 Monocarpin, the lauric acid derivative, has been found to be effective in the fight against aids, with its capability to kill many types of virus and bacteria. ![]() 83 The COCONUT meat contains saturated fats, which may increase the risk of heart disease. This is ofset by the benefits of phytosterols, also in the coconut meat, which helps lower cholesterol. 454k points in the team bag yesterday! ![]() |

Shakes my head and rolls my eyes.....Finally found a profession worse than lawyers... that is insurance companies. The tree is off the house and a tarp covers the roof and now its time to deal with the adjusters who seem to be related to ##%#Q*^!%*. Meanwhile congrats to the team for the great output and thaks to Tony for helping keep the team rolling and A shorn Rob for his contribution. |

Arguing with an insurance adjuster is like wrestling with a pig in the mud.......after a while you realise he likes it.
