Nice job Hans

Wish I could get one like that.

This time in Sydney I cannot work out in the sun because it is too hot. I have burnt myself on my tools after they have been sitting on the bench in the sun.

Hallo Matt,
je bent meer dan welkom als je in de beurt bent, en je Nederlands is prima te lezen hoor! EN ik hoop ook dat je een fijne verjaardag hebt gehad!
Groeten,
Hans. van Meer.

Hi Myrtle,
well I'm not really a full time professional, my real work is running a store were you can buy old and new vinyl records, Cd's, DVDs, and games. And I'm a D'J as well, although I haven't don much of that lately. But I do work on my trees everyday for a few hours at least! And the rest of my spear time goes in bonsai related work most of the times. And Bonsai is 24, 7 on my mind! LOL! And this year I'm really doing a lot of bonsai workshops and demo's, even in the U.S for the first time in May!

Hi Si,
and thanks for the compliment!
That's what I do, making bonsai! There are more than enough trees in the world, so why make more of those?!
Regards,
Hans van Meer.

Hi Pup,
although this kind of warm and Sunny weather is very unusual so early in February in Holland, it was only just 8 degrees out side. That why the misses brought my that nice Cappuccino to warm me up! LOL. But I managed to do some nice styling that day on several of my trees. And later on I walked to the beach near my house and watched the Sun set in the sea. (The picture I took with my cell phone). So all in all it wasn't a bad day ad all!

Hans,

Are we related?

I've spent many saturdays looking through old vinyl records at yard sales and such.

Do you like beer?

John this particular one is a permanent resident of Esperance area. It has its eerie on an Island Just off the coast. There is a boat trip that takes visitors to another Island, some times it will swoop in for a feed when it gets close to the Island. As I said right place right time. Pup
