Good Morning , Good Afternoon , Good Evening

[Drover]

Went for a wander across the sand flats near home, found a nice spot for big fat juicy nippers, so will have a handy bait supply for the serious fishing expedition, would have thrown a line in on the incoming but too much flamin wind and it's a long walk as the tide goes out for miles, will drag the Yak along the shallows next time to carry the gear out a the fish back, it's all coming together.................

Swans or Dogs, Mrs D being a Victorian says Dogs, I just don't know usually go for Swans when the Demons fall over.

I am supposed to be in bed asleep, but Foxtel has the Star Wars movies on - 1 thru to 7
so I have been watching them

just finished Episode IV (A New Hope)
dunno if to keep watching (as I am starting to get a little tired) or just tape them

 

[bigcol]

I fell asleep near the beginning of Episode V - lucky I had the fore sight to tape them all

 

[Drover]

Well I watched to first five minutes then went elsewhere, I'd rather watch a footy game around 3 in the arvo not of an evening on a weekend.....already had my beer issue, nap time............................

Now we can have the Cricket on the TV and Radio, .........................

Looks like SA is the place

 

[bigcol]

and its funny you put this up @Drover - I was just reading last night a thread on the other forum about rego's here.............
also showed how friendly some people can be on a forum...................

 

[crackacoldie]

I thi k the figures may be skewed slightly, my 6 cyl 100 series is over $600 a year to register, on country rates, plus the van at $72, not sure where they get the $450 all up from

 

[G Daddy]

[bigcol]

not sure how much the Van costs, but
the Cruiser is over $700 for a year
and the Patrol is over $600 for a year

 

[Drover]

Thankfully I flash my Gold Card and the Ute rego drops down.....................but cop full price for the van and the old HiLux.

They get a bit testy over there don't they @bigcol

 

[twscoot]

Rego for my van is due. $195.35 for the van here in Qld.

Music sounds good @Bluey , my Anglers Almanac reports next weekend is a good time to throw a line, mid morning.............................

[mfexpanda]

Mate I'd love to but it's the only weekend before we go away to MotoGP at PI then straight to Malaysia for the MotoGP so it's hectic .
Gummy shark may only come in the shallows in the dark I'd use pilchards on a 2 hook paternoster rig and a few brews for the fisherman

 

[Drover]

then the clouds come in and can't find your way back thru the dunes........................oh the memories.

 

[Dobbie]

Hey @expanda dont forget your budgie smugglers when you pack.

 

[Drover]

Glad you come thru it all okay, saw some horrible sights on the tele.....................after being surrounded by hundreds of huge gum tree's, this new place doesn't have one in cooee of us.

 

[Drover]

Afternoon workers, for those who need to hold down the awning when at beach, here's my way of doing it. The old shopping bag full of sand trick...... .....

....,.............

 

[Drover]

Gee you lot whinge if there's no picture and whinge when I do post a picture, best way to show the idea for beach awning hold downs was go to beach..................................just a reminder to go to Aldi and get some bags..........................................and I'm working !!!!!!! for no pay, spent 4 hrs this morning moving dirt by wheel barrow, then threw down shovel and went to beach, back by 3.30 and back into the shovelling............same again tomorrow, unless I go fishing in the AM................decisions, decisions.......
