Finishing John Hunter's jobs for 2010
John came with us as usual to guide us around the sites , this speeds things up greatly !

• Completed Ian Hammond's roadside strip at Bungeet. The site was now quite firm to drive on , sprayed lines were becoming faint .
• Returned to Graham Reid's at Almonds . Site very well prepared , strip sprayed twice . Seeded along two creek lines . Quite an extensive area.
• Ian McPerson's at Bungalong . Added understorey to remnant bush block . Followed sprayed lines.
• Don Carrmichael's at Dookie . Resowing an unsuccessful remnant bush site ( 'Demonstrate Site ") with understorey . Big thunderstorm and 25mm of rain while working . The seeding trench filled with water immediately , soaking the seed in well .
