G'day guys,
We just got back from a couple of real nice days paddling and camping in the headwaters of our Mary River. Am uploading images as I type this and will post a trip report shortly.
Re the Skiff. I have done a little more today but am currently repairing my Sasquatch where she found a...
One Clove of Garlic? only One clove!!!
As the oldbloke said, I too laugh in ya Creole face. :P
Now get out back and give yaself at least 6 uppercuts - one for each clove ya should have put in mate. :D
Mate, thanks for sharing this. I love creole cooking and will be trying this one real...
G'day Steve,
This is also a dream very similar to my own, only I don't have the skills yet. Your digital images that you post here are stunning in their composition and the throught that has gone into each shot.
I am learning a lot from these guys.

G'day guys,
Sorry for the delayed reply here ad the lack of finising the trip report. My computor with its lovely vista pig has crashed again. I am posting this from
Miss Suzies computor and hope to get mine back today. Will complete the trip report as soon as i can.
John mate, I am well...
G'day Jack, thanks mate and yeah, we did eat some of the fish. they were only small though.
Wednesday broke fine and clear again though still windy. While we were having brekfast, Dave wallace turned up. :D with his fine laker and crab pots.
yet another cuppa and a chat and Dave unloaded...
G'day Chuck. I agree completely mate. :D I LOVE this fine forum.
Back to the story.
At about lunch time, the day had become pretty hot and I had had enough so I headed back to camp for lunch and some liquid refreshment. John followed shortly after and we just sat in the shade talking for a...
We woke bright and early on Tuesday morning to this! :D
Oh Boy! gonna be a nice day. After a lazy breakfast and several coffees/ teas, we headed off, up stream this time to some gutters and channels to the northern side of the creek mouth.
and it wasn't long before John was on to...
Another cuppa and as the day was only half over, we went for our first exploratory paddle and fish. bait of choice was yabbies, which I think are similar to ghost shrimp in the US and are pumped from the sand at low tide. We paddled across the channel to a sand bank opposite our camp.
Then...
G'day guys, will probably have to post this in installments. :D
Following on from the thread here,
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7585
and numerous phone calls etc re weather, John arrived at my place in the AM on Monday had a quick cuppa and we loaded up and headed north into a very gloomy day. We...
G'day Ancient kayaker and welcome aboard!
Mate, your post was superb! thank you!!!! :D
I have learnt a lot in your one post that I have read and am looking forward to MANY more of your posts and thoughts on wood working.
respectfully,
Mick
G'day Dave. Thanks mate. It was good to catch up with you again.
I am working on a trip reort at the moment, and i am sure john and Dave will contribute when they get the chance.
in the meantime, A shot of the camp site.
the view aint half bad either. :D
(low tide)
Thanks Dave,
I think Boynedale Siding is probably a viable alternative and well worth a look if it is too crappy at 1770.
We are heading up in the morning and I need to return on Thursday for w@#k on Friday.
If we had more time, I would be inclined to head for Ramsay's Crossing in The...
Oh yeah,
While down here in Hervey Bay, yesterday. I took the liberty of getting some very good Australian wines. not sure if John enjoys a wine or not but will be taking "adequate" supplies. :D
G'day Dave,
Sorry to hear about ya tyres mate. I had forgotton all about the appalling customer service in Gladstone. (Part of the reason I left there)
I spoke with John on the phone last night and he doesn't have a moile phone I am posting from Miss Suzies place so don't have mine with me and...
g'day Dave,
I just got off the phone with John and if the weather continues to improve, we will be heading up there on Moday. ETA. some time, mid afternoon.
I think Round Hill Creeek will probable be the best option in the current easterly winds because it is more shelered than Eurimbula...
G'day John,
I have been speaking with a lady friend who lives in Rainbow Beach. if the cyclone looks like crossing down there, she has offered you shelter at her home.
Failing that, you know that you are welcome at my place any time mate. Take care.
will PM you her phone number...
Jack, there be plenty of gals there mate :D
Dave,
if this cyclone keeps away, i think the trip is on. i think the fishing potential is probably better at 1770 as opposed to middle creek. We both know the commercial guys flog it and the track in even in good weather is a S.O.B. for a...
