That huge Prickle Farm is a testimony to the power of Pine Bill the secret of success as I see it is to choose a theme and go for it, hit it hard and often make it special with reasonable cost using renewables familiar to most everyone, you have ticked all the boxes mate. The Power of a Cone.Where I used to work in the Forestry Division of CSIRO they had a tree that shed giant cones from an imported tree serious sizes will revisit, send some pics mate.Like it is with Paul when I see a hunting bird I think of him when I look at Pine trees now I think of you. Another but weird cone type is from the Monkey Puzzle tree not found this far south that divides in an interlocking fashion hence its name when found by monkeys under the tree they try and put them back together, found in Mangrove areas.

Thanks for sharing mate.:goesred::mooney::noway1:
