It's OK for me, lovely sunny day here, only 39c today.

It's only 9am so I have got ALL DAY :rotfl:

Bob

Only 39c???? at that temp I would be trying to hide in a freezer somewhere. If you have all day to laugh at us googling like crazy the air conditioner must be working well.

Hello Joe, How are you today???

BTW most of you have No.4 correct.

Does this help???

Bob.

Doing ok! But I'm about ready to go to bed. I'm going to wake up early tomorrow and gather up the hints and win this and celebrate and win a thermometer and brag about it and be so happy. Or see that someone else beat me to it, and cry.

Hey Bob

+39 C for you , -7 C for me . Total difference = 46 . Now if we split it in half , we could both be comfortable !

 

[Gofer]

Whats the hold up??? Where's Markgum and the Penguin??? Has everyone given up and moved to a different bash party???

Time for a curve ball Bob, lets get this going again.

They can lurk and hide or go oohh and aahhhh at all the purdy pens if they like, less competition for the rest of us.

No matter who is awarded the final thermometer tonight I just want to say a big THANK YOU TO ROY AND BOB:handshake:

This has been a great way to get involved in the bash and a great learning experience as well. Who could have imagined that this contest would already have 1722 views so far while all the rest total 2028 views. I hope Roy and Dee make this a yearly event and that Bob continues to torture ... I mean educate us all. :wink:

Even if I don't win; I now have a ton of resources for ID-ing wood.
Truly a fun contest.

I won't hesitate to say that you were not the only one blasting away, last night I resorted to machine gun fire guesses.

Hey Bob! How about throwing us a bone mate?
