Cos the freezer is full:rotfl:


In seriousnessness - I take field measurements of a sample of each of my clones (13 different types) all of the willow I have growing (6.5ha) - the measurement are an approximation of the standing 'biomass' of the plantation.

In order to check my measurements are right (with me so far:cool:) I have to cut measure, chop and cook 6 plants of each clone at each field site.

When I cook them it gets rid of the moisture in them. Which tells me how much moisture the wood had and how much the wood weighs when its 100% dry.

Then we do lots of whizzy sums and scratch our heads and work out how much wood we can get from the plantation.

When I say we of course - *i mean me*

*no american actresses are harmed in this research*

Shame about the American actress, one can only hope.

I'll try: Fay mentions clones - this has something to do with Star Wars, not sure what, but is obviously something very futuristic and clever and involves light sabres.

Cooking willow: is not as we first thought anything to do with Buffy the Vampire Slayer, more to do with Fay joining the OS board as our version of Nigella

I may have to ask the idiot boss about the rest of Fay's blue sky thinking, the babel fish has stopped working....

Bet theres a wookie and an ewok in the freezer to :rotfl:

I hope you don't pay bill for that! 4 days in the oven? :eek: If its your home oven I'm getting more and more worried about your kitchen! Misc wildlife in the freezer, wood in the oven... :eek: :rotfl: Maybe hamster's ewoks ARE in the cupboards??

Field clothes=Stormtrouper suit (white flowing dress is saved for the lab - gold lame bikini underneath - danishes at the lugs under woolly hat)
Ewok = Peedie (doesnt live in the cupboards)
Wookie = OH (doesnt shave much)


I am stuck in the attack of the clones:rotfl:
