well ,jedd landed back in auckland 40 minutes ago,he is glad to be back after a busy 3 weeks i am sure.we will be going back in late march for a first strike on the fruiting season,the next 2 wet months will produce a lot of fruit.jedd managed to produce 1000litres of available juice with the sparse fruit available at this dry time,so has done well.
he started modifing his car , fitted a boom box speaker,and has plans for a 5 speed gearbox etc..etc!!!! be the fastest farm car in fiji!!!!
anyway we are waiting for him to walk into the house and talanoa levu (tell us big stories) about his first time running the family farms,maybe he knows a little of what i have had to do to make it happen over the last 16 years and more....lets hope the business meetings i have been having come to some form of fruition...time will tell... and the fruit keeps on growing.all the best .

CLEAN UP TIME!!!
The farm needed some serious attention after our absence due to family affairs. We helped Vuninia with their provisional taxes and Ratu Sevoloni sent up many men to the farm to clean overgrowth in one day with machetes'.
Our son Jedd has spent last 3 weeks finnishing up;repairing fences,re-stocking farm with cows,cleaning up trees,picking and processing fruit and general maintaince.
He also bought a car and organised a mains power fitout for our fortress!
Jo-anne and i are very happy how Jedd has handled things,running farms overseas,at 20yrs of age!
Good on him.
