My uncle John Prendergast - from Greymouth was a champion wood chopper.

Linda Marsh
Sue, Dad did all his woodchopping in Nelson representing the Nelson Bushcraft Club. We spent many years following him around the circuits. Good times, made a lot of friends.

Sue Glanville
Hi Linda. How are you. I remember going to watch him chopping as a child while you were living in Marlborough Street so assumed it was in Greymouth! xx

Linda Marsh
Sue, we're all well. I don't remember much about living on the Coast, I was only 4 when we left so it is possible that he was chopping then.

Sue Glanville me too

Bill Stephenson
Great skills, how they kept their balance swinging that axe 20 plus ft high on a plank I will never know. Some of them were up in yrs also, amazing.

Naireen Bass
Bill Stephenson I always wonder at how they keep their feet!

Terry Scott
Looks like maybe Brian hatley in the blue

Alice Gilsenan

Jill Sinclair
We use to spend many weekends going to watch a dear family friend Joe Curtain doing wood chopping. Loved it.
