The Conteners: Richard G.


In the North East corner is “Richard” aka @oliveoilguy (Google Earth Coordinates 34 57 50.83S 138 35 31.70 E). He has been farming his small plot for a decade so he’s at least got some idea. Both his teenage girls are happy to live on 100 gms of food a day and he is more of the landed gentry owning (with a little help of the Banks), a smaller but more exclusive plot a mere kilometre away from the SoF. He has no chickins or worm farms (as his local authorities don’t allow it as noisey worms piss his neighbours off no end. Not surprising as the average age of the suburb is a grumpy 98 according to the recent census).

But he does have science on his side. Paul has trained as an environmental scientist at a regional university, and Richard as a real scientist at one of the ivy league unis, so he has a big advantage there. He also has a weather station on site so he'll always have his finger on the environmental pulse. 

But he won't underestimate the Bianco as despite being educated in Queensland, he is an accomplished and wily vege gardener.
