For trees are jolly good fellows...

Woohoo, check me out; two posts in one day! What a gun. To celebrate the occasion, I've decided to show you some trees; because you are urban types and don't know what trees are. On your left you will see a photo. You may notice than in the centre(ish) of this photo is an organism of irregular structure and colouring. This is a tree. Trees don't give up easily.




Trees are also quite friendly. They have been known to respond well to hugs. If they can't find greenie hippy scum to hug them, they will quite often hug themselves.








Of course the similarities with people don't
end there. Just as people (Women, anyway.*) are pretty much useless once they reach a certain age and should be pulped, the same goes for trees. And just like people (Women, anyway.*), we tend to let trees hang on too long.






And just like people (Women, anyway.* Still.), trees
have really crap skin when they get old.









Of course, not all trees are what they seem. This one is obviously a bloke.
It started life as a fencepost. (If you don't count the fact that the fencepost was cut from a pre-existing tree.) Not content with having led a productive life once, it has decided to do it all over again.





*Blokes remain bonzer in perpetuity.
