Allens Ashburton

We might have to change our name to Aliens Ashburton 👽. Looked out the window to see where Pooman had gotten to and P**F! he's been beamed up Scotty!

All that's left are his tattered slippers 😳.
If you spot him wandering around aimlessly, walking funny, emitting a green glow, give me a yodel...

On this crisp winters day, a Friday as it was, a bargain was struck. Josh was tasked with cleaning Little Poo, to prepare it for a Cof. I was about to set the fire when I was struck with a genius plan. "Oh hark there son of mine...if I was to clean the Little Poo, will ye clean thy chimney?" Josh, who hates cleaning anything vehicular and also cleans chimneys as his side hustle, immediately shook on it. Deal 🤛. It was a win win situation for me as I was guaranteed that Little Poo would be cleaner that it had ever been and I get a clean flue. Hurrah!
Yes, I am one of those people who enjoys cleaning things. Go me.😁

Also... hit Josh up if you need a chimney sweep. 0279363818 Burrowes Chimneys.
(Bottle of wine will suffice Josh, thanks) 🍷

*To be read in David Attenboroughs voice..
On a sunshiney Thursday morning, Mumma Bear was sheltering in her den, getting her much need beauty sleep, when she heard a call from one of her cubs. It was the elder cub, out in the natural environment, far from the den. Upon arriving at his destination he noticed that his sustanance, lovingly hunted and gathered by his out of his league wife, was not beside him and startled, he began tracking it. Roaming around, he located it, far from where he was. He put out the call.....Mumma Bear to the rescue. Clawing her way from the den, placing her feet in her boots with the fur, she too began tracking. She needed to find the food to feed her cub and wasn't about to fail on her mission. Cruising along the desert road (or Methven Highway as it is sometimes known), she quickly tracks and locates the missing food parcel. Sitting, patiently waiting for its retrieval. Looking a little bereft from being thrown from the vehicle at a great rate of knots. Then began the hunt for the listening devices, also thrown unceremoniously from the vehicle. Flinging themselves far and wide, emitting a tiny cry, allowing them to be tracked.
Yes people, Joshuaticus Wouldlosehisheadifnotattachedtobody Burrowesus, has taken the Crown from his Father Bear as Dick of the Day. He too has left something on the side of the truck. Ahhh...the apple seems to have not fallen far from the tree at all.
Good times.

We all know the truth don't we Pooman...

POOCRU family, we need your assistance. If this man is spotted at this location then please gently guide him away and back to his vehicle. This is especially important if you see him with a bottle of Shankys Whip in his hands. Bat this away from his hands immediately. You will be saving countless hangovers, livers and ultimately days after socialising with this man. Please be vigilant, our livers are begging you.
But actually, it was fun at the time. 🤣

One whole year ago this photo was taken. You look like you are thinking "what the hell have i gotten myself into"!?!. You have more hair, possibly a couple of greys from working for your Dad. You've learnt to drive a jetting truck, a Lil Poo truck and a Big Poo truck. You've cleaned more portaloos than you can count and you've done it all with a smile on your dial. Super proud of you son! Hope you know that you are locked in for life Mwahahahahaha 😈
Happy first year of many 😁😎

When Chris is on call the Big Dog is out to play! Or something like that... and man, do we know how to play!!! Housie that is. We know how to play Housie. Friday nights at the local Razza is the place to be people!!! Good vibes, numbers flying, beers are flowing and we are trying to keep up. Made a bit of coin which was much to Poomans delight, we even got dubbed "The Lucky Table", and they don't hand those naming rights out W***y Nilly. Just good times all round. Was so much excitement in one night that we all had to go home and have a cup of tea and a lie down. Thanks Josh and Sarah for bringing the good looks and luck :)

When two vehicles are worth around the same amount....which one would you choose?

Josh, Sarah and Ella were Poocru Team Burrowes last weekend and put in some big hours sucking the end result of 65,000 peoples over indulgence at the Supercars at Ruapuna Speedway.

Josh had a crack at getting the big unit on the track but the officials thought it was a bit too much horsepower and wouldn't be fair on the others.

While the young ones were out playing with fast cars, Darryl was out at the NZ Ploughing champs playing with slower tractors....much more his style 🤣👴

Pooman has traded in his wheels for something a little different. As we all know, Pooman is the ultimate adrenaline ju**ie! Taking mega risks, bungy jumping, parkour, roller blading and sky diving and that's just on a Monday! 🤣🤣😌

How did the big guy hurt himself you ask? So many ways that this could happen! I live in fear everytime he leaves the house....

He twisted his knee climbing out of the truck. Yup. Just climbing down...

Soft tissue damage and on crutches for a week. And to top it off I abandoned him for a week in Dunedin. Woe is he!! 😭

So if you see the jetting truck bunny hopping along the road you know it will be Old Mate battling the clutch.
