??????what the??????
Have you been into Phils PINK DRINKS?????
You sitting down to pi$$ these days Steve?

[NEWBY]

Righto, I am locked in and hopefully it will be with the new boat...
Carnelpya will be on the market in NOvember/December and I will be seeking a 42/47 Bertram or Caribbean.
The family has grown so now the boat has to as well...
The new boat will be called....




Wait for it...




Keep waiting...

Nah Newbs, still have to stand 2m away.

With going to the Swains next year, I can't justify another week away from my young family, so will stick with my top priority. Will probably still be eating spanish macs by then.

Have fun

It could be that he has taken to the pink lolly drinks Newby, but with us going to the Swains, there is only so many brownie points one can accumulate so it will be to the sin bin for him for a while.:-X;D

I'd like to say I'll be there but I just don't know what will be happening at this stage, property goes on the market next month, buying a block of land at Boonooroo and building a house may take up a most of my time but will take it as it comes.

Right Tranter. Game on at the Swains. Let's see who is soft when you had the 2nd bottle of rum jammed down your throat (might even take it out of the bottle for you!) and then we go chasing big bastard fish that will rip those old arms off you. It is not as though they have built up much muscles hauling fish in;D.

Family first for me!

Steve

[marvin]

We are keen to attend again, will probably be the whole family same same, as the boss and kids enjoyed the beach and the kick back week heaps. So if leave can be approved with work, we will book the same house we had this year. Let you know when it's hopefully confirmed... Cheers Kev.

[four_button_arnie]

Count me in for sure;D, ill get the whole week off hopefully this time

Wellbutrin lawsuit information (http://www.classactionsettlements.org/lawsuit/wellbutrin/)

[Noelm]

hey, I just checked for flights at that time, and all Jetstar flights are booked for days either side of those dates, and most Qantas are booked too, is there something very major on? can't find anything on the interweb about it.

[vertico]

Just like to apologise to anyone here that took offense to any comments from any ausfish members about not being able to fish. Even I know myself that I have just started out chasing these red fish and its a very steep learning curve that Iam only just at the bottom of it. These comments didnt come from myself but I can see how they might have been thought to come from the brand. So just get out there and catch fish no matter how you try or what you use.
Thanks guys
Sean

[murf]

thanks Sean for acknowledgement of a slightly miss directed post, there is a lot of banter amongst the mob that goes to the Agnes Water/1770 M&G and there are few amongst them that tie there own flys so a lot of comments were not putting your business down but shite stirring amongst themselves, there are a lot of very skilfull and dedicated fishermen (not politically correct but ya get that) that are willing to pass on knowledge experience to fellow fishermen, we go and have a heap of fun but down deep we are all about fishing

gotta love Ausfish and how it brings so many different walks of life together for the common interest of the outdoors and fishing :)

cheers Murf

[DALEPRICE]

hmmm, been a while between drinks for me
but may try and get a look in on those dates.
will have to see.

[tropicrows]

Dates all locked in, com on Tim start building that boat !!!!!!!;)

[Lucky_Phill]

Don't worry about the boat, lock in house rentals.

Buy alcohol stocks NOW.

Don't forget to buy ya mullet fillet IN SEASON....... next year.

Also, there will be a couple of " pre-fish " excursions..... ;) :-X

For those that are attending or want to attend next year, pm me and I will put you on a " pre-fish " email list so that when I decide to hit that area between now and September 2011, you will be notified.

Thing is I go with about 48 hours notice and mostly mid week 8-)

I am sure I can arrange accommodation there for these ' quickies ".

Howdy all, just locked in annual leave and the holiday house is booked "Aurthurs park" again the place we had this year for ten days starting the Friday the 9th and ending on the Monday the 19th after the M&G dates. Kids and missus loved it just chilling out on the beach, and hopefully Margie and the kids will get out for a fish next year. And the Etec didn't need a tow home as was predicted this year.... :-) Phil I will send you a pm for the prefish list, cheers Kev.

[gofishin]

Hey Phill/guys,

]Although you might not have agreed at the time, with hindsight the weather for the Ausfish week up here (1770) in Sept 2010 would have been a bloody ripper. PBA is up here now...:'( :'(

Sunday, strong wind warning, no fishing! A slight window opened (sort of) when the SW Warning for Monday was cancelled, until it was re issued late Sun night. A few still boats ventured out the heads and to the bait grounds for a mackeral fish as it was only 15 -20 early on. One boat got lucky with a few spottys. A few others had strikes/hook-ups but lost out. We stayed out a bit longer (for some stupid reason), got belted for our efforts when the big man threw the turbo switch on, and didn’t even get a hit!

Today (Tues) - blown out, Weds - blown out...but current prediction is Thurs & Fri will be OK (praying) and Sat looks OK... so maybe we will just have to stay another day to make up for it!

Hope the weather Gods are with you for your 1770 ‘slot’ for next year, as they are certainly not with us this year!
Cheers

Yes Brendon,

we went with different dates ( month ) to take advantage of more consistent days together for wind conditions. That, and the fact NEWBY paid me to have it in September so he could work his leisure time around it. ;) :P

Bit of a bummer about the weather etc, but with La Nina weather patterns around, earlier in the year the better. My prediction is that the La Nina patterns will be around for a couple of years now.

Expect some cyclones, maybe an early one in December and then a few more Jan / Feb and even March with some of them hitting areas further south like Hervey Bay, Noosa etc.

We were lucky ( well , good management, some may call it ::) ) with the winds etc and really, you could have gone out every day of our trip this year. I managed 4 or was it 5 days ?? dunno now...

Ya just cant do it can ya Phil. Ya cant admit that with ALL your supposed experience in the area, that it WASNT YOU that suggested the change can ya?:-?
You could have fished every day this year and every day last year too...;D
We had one day of around 15kn last year and even that disappeared by lunch time...;D
You may have JINXED next years M&G with bad KARMA buddy...>:(
If you look hard enough through the archives, you will see where the change in dates occurred and who suggested it.:D

Harden up Pill, get off the Pink Poofy drinks and take a teaspoon of cement pal...:P

Its ok not to be "the one" mate...
You lost any respect we ever had for you when you started the "pink drink brigade" and believe me, it wasnt much anyway...;)

[Lucky_Phill]

Oi Big Fella, with the short memory ( too much SBJD ).

This is taken from MY report of the 2009 AF agnes water M & G.:-

With NEWBY’s promise of great weather, this years M & G was well and truly going to be well attended. Boat sizes ranged from 4.1mtr to 35ft with most in the 5.85 – 6.5mtr range. I believe everyone caught fish and there were many firsts and PB’s.

murf and myself headed up a couple of days early due to weather conditions looking great for a pre-fish. Motored out to the Fitzroy area on Wednesday with light to moderate winds that persisted through the night, but in the morning it glassed out and the fish were on.

Team ReBait put in 2 overnighters and a day trip in the first 7 days…. Knacked…. ? yes !

I’d like to thank a lot of people for this years event.

Firstly to murf for once again providing great commemorative shirts and good company.

To Apollo ( Steve ) and trymyluck ( Mark ) for the bait gathering.

To NEWBY for getting the weather almost right. :P ;)



Is this not an acknowledgment of your suggestion ???? huh ? huh ?


Some where on AF I did post up the historical wind information for the weather at 1770 in September, at your suggestion. YES, I took heed of your suggestion and did the research, as I would with anybody elses suggestion.

NOW, if ya don;t mind, some of have to go to work to earn a buck to pay for next years trip. :P ;) 8-) 8-)

Go back and check out what time of the day/night I am normally posting.
I often get up at 2 or 3 in a morning and do work so I can have some sort of lifestyle away from the business.
Believe me, I work.
How many phone calls do you reckon I get a day when I am "on leave" and have to handle?
M&G's same thing...Ask anyone who has been out with me on the boat. I still take the calls.

[Lucky_Phill]

don't feel guilty Bruce,,,, Newbs just took the bait and ran with it like a big Dollie !


:) :)

All those calls he gets while on fishing trips is from his stock broker, sell this, buy that, oh shit, I only made 100K on that stock, damn :p


I think Newbs needs to train up a good manager .... :)



At least he didn;t have to return to Brisbane TWICE in a week during an M & G a couple of years ago.

Don't know about you lot, but in NSW rain is forcast to go through to (depending on who you believe) January or May:(

Being a retired farmer, I always thought that you shouldn't knock the rain as there are plenty of Dry spells inbetween, but JESUS, haven't we had enough:'(

Rob T8-)

[Lucky_Phill]

There is definitely more to come RT.

This current La Nina weather pattern will hold and copious amounts of precipitation will descend from the heavens bringing generous floods of nutrients from inland rivers to the reef systems of our great coastline.

Funny thing though, along with the nutrients, abundant heavy metals and pollutants will also flow. Mother nature needs to sift out the craap and indulge herself with the goodness from the clouds.

La Niña translates from Spanish as "the girl-child". The term "La Niña" has recently become the conventional meteorological label for the opposite of the better known El Niño (http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/glossary/elnino.shtml).
The term La Niña refers to the extensive cooling of the central and eastern Pacific Ocean. In Australia (particularly eastern Australia), La Niña events are associated with increased probability of wetter conditions.
Changes to the atmosphere and ocean circulation during La Niña events include:
Cooler than normal ocean temperatures across the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean.
Increased convection or cloudiness over tropical Australia, Papua New-Guinea, and Indonesia.
Stronger than normal (easterly) trade winds (http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/glossary/trade_winds.shtml) across the Pacific Ocean (but not necessarily in the Australian region).
High (positive) values of the SOI (http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/glossary/soi.shtml) (Southern Oscillation Index).A La Niña event is sometimes called an anti-ENSO (anti-El Niño-Southern Oscillation) event.

In short, what this means is next years M & G will be a Fish-A-Thon. ;D ;)

And for those that really want to know...........................

It is 309 days from now until the start day of the M & G,

Alternative time units

NEWS just in. ;)

Due to an unprecedented demand for quality foods, the 2011 AF 1770 M & G " Gladstone Motorworld " Cook-Off will be a " Finger Food Affair". :D

What this means is that ALL ( no exceptions ) food presented must be able to be picked up from a serving plate, placed into orifice and devoured by one hand ( ie:- two fingers or one finger and a thumb ). Also not needing the other hand to wipe sauce, crumbs and other condiments from parts of face that Finger Food did not enter.

This diversion from the norm has been brought about by the necessitation to hold an alcoholic drink in one hand at all times during the course of the Cook-Off. ;D

Also, from previous years efforts by thedeckie ( aka Paul ) with his " to die for " Sara Lee spring rolls and meat balls as well as 2010's murf ( aka Paul ) Beer Battered Spanish mack offering.

So dear entrants, think long and hard about your entry.

Wholemeal crackers with Avocado and Salmon, topped with a Fennel and Ginger sprinkle ???? maybe

Fresh boiled Vietnamese rice and spinach rolls ????

Prawn, Pineapple, mussel and rockmelon kebabs ??????

4 and 20 Party Pies ??????????????

Bruschetta....made with grilled bread rubbed with garlic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garlic) and topped with extra-virgin olive oil (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olive_oil), salt and pepper and may include toppings of spicy red peppers, tomato, vegetables, beans, cured meat, and or Mozzorella cheese


or whatever ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????




MORE NEWS........... 8-)



we will hopefully have a surprize judge. no clues, but believe me they know their food and will be clinical in their assessment of all entries. :-X





Cheers Phill

Looking ahead, I do believe the pink drink p00fy phantom of Agnes has got the dates right with the moon and the tides.
If I am right, as always, with the weather, we should have glass-out next year and full esky's...
I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

[NEWBY]

AND in news just to hand, I have just confirmed that I will be sporting 2 new titty tattoo's for the M&G next year.
Booked in on December 6th and 7th in Brisvegas to get the following...
LEFT TITTY = MARLIN DANCIN'... Goes with t he current wife/mermaid/sea theme I have on that arm.
RIGHT TITTY = LION to fit in with the astrology theme of the oriental dragon (year of 64) as I am a LEO an all...

Up yours Jack. Rhys was Skipper, and Rhys was driving. I was sitting down the back minding my own friggin' business!

;D;D;D;D

Tim

[Lucky_Phill]

SO, Timi, as navigator / senior crew member, was NOT ON WATCH !!!!!!

Therefore and understandably, when Rhys stated it was Timi's fault, I will have to agree.

A skipper is only as good as his crew and thus you failed, oh he of the Canal & Pontoon Abode !!!! :P 8-) 8-)

Your sounding like the Paul Lucas / Rob Schwarten Qld health fiasco. Wasn't my fault, ..............was so,, wasn't my fault, ...............was so !!

Why did it take that long? Mark and I filled ours in 2hrs and we are NSWelshmen;D In 6hrs we had time to go to the ramp, launch, get to the spot, fill the esky, have lunch and a few beers, comb our hair, get back to the ramp, get the boat back to the house, clean up and knock back a few scotches.

Don't pick on Rob - he is going on a week long course of hard training in July next year, so will be in peak form come the M&G.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I propose a competition where we have an overall weigh in, kg vs kg. Losers painted in Maroon or Blue for dinner at the pub at the end of the week??? I was going to say drink esky juice but I think that is taking it too far.

And I keep telling you lot, I can fish, it's CATCHING, I have a problem with.

I caught some fish on my first Agnes trip, since then SFA, so don't be too cocky, and you have to agree, I did have Murf's Marks, and they turned up squat.

Pretty typical of the NSWelsh egocentric view of the World. My Family arrived in South Australia in 1842. My Great...Great Grandfather was Captain of the ship, and, as with ALL settlers in South Australia, he and his Family came of their own free will. He preceded this with an auspicious career in the British Navy, during which he was captured (and subsequently escaped) from the French, during the War of 1812.

So no, I do not agree that we all somehow were filtered through NSW. History is complex, fascinating, and perhaps a little too difficult for an "ex Farmer" - your words - to comprehend, but please, OH PLEASE don't go putting up that silly old Chestnut that I am somehow sullied by the same genetic/geographic sludge you clambered out of.

Let the Games begin. But I suppose they already have!

;D;D;D;D

Tim

[tropicrows]

Jesus Tim you teach history as well......

Like you I am one of the true Aussies who's forbearers did not come out on a convict ship. My father’s side were on the first ship out of England and my mother side was on the first ship from Germany to settle in S Aust. We go back a long way, not sure of the date but Tim I know you will.

You'd have been about 8 years earlier than us then! Our Great...Great Grandaddies probably met! I wonder if they fished together? And your Mother's side were Lutherans, I assume, who came out to escape persecution in Germany in the mid 19th Century or thereabouts (first in 1836 actually, in Kingscote). Did Mum's side grow wine?

See how much class we have, Bruce? It's really fun to brush shoulders with the great unwashed occasionally though. Jolly good, what?

Cheers,

Tim

[tropicrows]

Jolly good show. Lutherans, correct old boy...... I know that on dad side they owned all the land that is know Tea Tree Gully/ golden Grove, but somehow when it was all sold the money never came down through my fathers line. Such as life..............fu#k

[Chris Ryan]

My father’s side were on the first ship out of England and my mother side was on the first ship from Germany to settle in S Aust.

Imagine you doing that voyage now......a berley trail from Liverpool to Adelaide!!

[tropicrows]

If I recall you got pretty green under the gills at 1770, smart arse (short term memory loss Chriseee boy)...

[Noelm]

kind of funny when you think about, we have EFI outboards, EPIRB, VHF radio, Flares and god knows what else, and still need to check and double check the weather and so on, and that's just to do a fishing trip! these guys just set sail, with just skill and good luck to see them through! but that is slightly off topic, my fore fathers also came out (from France) on their own, they settled (from what we know) somewhere around the Pittwater/Hawkesbury river area. I still have a telescope made in the 1700's at home that has been handed down through the generations

[Mr__Bean]

Maybe you should pass that telescope onto Rhys.

:P ;D :D ;D :-* ;D :) ;D ::) ;D

I really do not care where you folks originated from, my only concern is whether you were born and bred the the Sunshine State. If you were not, that is your problem, that can by all accounts, be rectified.

Suitably endowed brown paperbags, submitted personally to any number of our great public servants or current standing MP's will win you favour.

Following that submission, you must partake of various acts of Queenslandism.

ask any qlder what they are.

POMPOUSE

Actually, it's spelt "pompous".

Thus proving my point, of course.

Tim

[Tangles]

No Timiboy even though you maybe right, your wrong in this instance, thats how New South Welshmen spell,

i actually thawt they spelt it .... PompARSE.. they have never progressed further than Hopawarty

[tropicrows]

I did Bruce.........but didn't spew!


Your right I did spew, but not the day you were green under the gills. That day we could have gone water skiing. ;D;D;D

We will have to get out on the same boat, then we can burley up both sides at once. Now that will bring the fish on.

[marvin]

Sorry to break the discussion line Guys, I just paid our deposit for the house for next yrs M&G, holidays approved through work, so we will be there Friday 9th - Monday 19th Sep staying at Arthurs Park again between Agnes and the ramp, on the right just after Agnes Palms resort, 900mts from the servo. I'm excited allready. As you were gentleman.... Kev.

And YES 10 pound pom....In the 60's, the aussie government was paying poms to come over here cause of the shortage of SKILLED labour...
They came by boat and when they got off the boat they were given 10 quid to get started.
We PAID our OWN way over...We flew in the JJ (jumbo Jet) That was just over 39 years ago..

[XtremeBoony]

sorry boys but was just looking for the Agnes M & G thread but all I can find is a

history report for like the last thousand years and a bunch of blokes complaining

about not living in Austalia's premier state of GoDsLaNd :P (or queensland for

all you slow out of staters). Sounds like you blokes talk to much and thats why

are looking pretty well so I expect some awesome reports to be posted to

get us land locked fella's through the tuff times :)

Anyway, I am yet to read through the ten pages of shite but I am currently in the process of making it happen for me again next year. Going to have to fluke it, cause I am planning to sail a few legs on the HMB Endeavour on its voyage around Australia next year if all goes well!!

[MY-TopEnder]

I filled out a leave application today... with strict notes on the bottom that if they won't let me go, then that application becomes my resignation letter.... application was accepted.

I've missed the last few years since that trip in 07. I'll be back, and can't wait.

[Almako]

Ok looks like we have another boat (or two) heading to 1770 for this memorable trip.
Will hopefully be sourcing some accommodation shortly which will lock us in for the trip.
Boat - Cruisecraft 625 named " Real Therapy", see you there.

Well, I guess from a certain perspective you may be right Greg. Queenslanders certainly think we know no better (or a little better - YOUR WORDS ;D;D;D). I am happy to allow you guys to soak in your ignorance. It does nothing to dilute my entirely justified feelings of superiority.

As to the games? Beginning to like League. Very much like Union. Very much like AFL. Even more I like digging holes and playing Tonkas (real ones). Now there's a dirty sport! Other dirty sports I like? We'll not go there...

Mate, the bionic finger was a work accident, that i think the ex wife snaffled the pay out. At least she is not getting the benefits of it anymore. As with being a smurf, it make things look big and I dont mind the smell of a truffle. Oh forgot, i not hairy.

Chong I can't wait to catch up at new years with you and the boys from coutes. We'll organise the trip to Roonies in Feb then.

Murf, man, thanks for those photos of the boat. Mate if you are up this way, I'll take you out in it. If not we'll go for a run up at Agnes.

First thing Andy is that the M & G is NEXT year :P, but we'll forgive a Rag boatie.

I really think you need to take the plastic boat up Middle Creek and do the Middle to Pancake trek. Timing is everything for that one, but it would be a hell of a trip.

Oh gawd, not another one. At least there is no mistake with Phill's drinks, its etanol pured into pink cordial. But SBJD, they have to filter it through charcoal to make it palatable, and even then its not. I can beleive they pass thie queer shit off as whiskey. You know what they use charcoal for? Filtering out poisons and bad tastes. Just means the process is all fugged up.

Actually, Newbs, if you were a REAL Pom, you'd know that the Ashes were taken back by the Poms four years ago, and we have failed to regain them twice since. Thus the Poms have RETAINED the Ashes, rather than REGAINED them.

I still havn't ran the rebuild of the 200 etec as yet, the way the wind and floods are going it will be the M&G at 1770 2011 as the maiden voyage post rebuild. The house at Arthurs Park is booked again from the Friday till the next Monday, giving us 10 days up there, hopefully we will get in a trip offshore or two as we did last year . Dying to try those marks of yours marty;) ...... Cheers Kev.

[TimiBoy]

Inlike, I can answer that for you!

Anyone's in - you need to organise your own accommodation, or harrass here for a bunk somewhere.

I'm not sure that numbers are ever required, so you kinda show up if you want, though it's helpful to know a few days before.

The more the merrier, though we try to limit the number of people travelling from South of the border, you know...

Cheers,

Tim

[Lucky_Phill]

Is this you Paul from G&DRLF Club ? 8-)

Doesn't matter either way.

What Timi said....

I would look for accommodation NOW. If you read back through the threads you'll find links to Real Estate business's there. You may wish to camp ?

Best to run accom by me first, as some houses have very steep driveways and although OK for boats etc, staggering up them after a mini M & G or a Tavern night, can be an issue.... well for us older folks anyway !!! :)

A lot of houses have water / ocean views and this is always good. Take the binoculars.

Best looking in Agnes Water, rather than 1770. Up to you.

Closer to the dates, I get everyones mobile number so we can keep in contact.

Timi will gather boat details to pass onto VMR Round Hill for ease of log ins etc.

He will also get , accom address and names ( crew included ).

We also usually identify ourselves out on the water in two ways... one being a small Aussie flag run up the radio antenna and also we stick to the VMR radio channel then, move to another one for boat to boat communications.

If you haven't fished the area before, ask some questions here or pm me or others in regard to tackle, distances and hot spots..... well maybe the hot spots :-X ;)


keep checking in here to see what's doing.

Team Sunlover looks to have their Captain back this year.

Roz and Tony called in on their way home from Agnes yesterday. They have done the ' upkeep ' to Sunlover and are looking forward to the " events " once again.

Reports are that the dirty water was out as far as you could see from land. Obviously, that will clear by the time we terrorize the place, but it could be a good sign for things to come.

I have started to make " fishing... red.... destination plans " already.

And I have a new secret weapon. Scotty ( alias finga ) has lent me ( or did I just acquire it ? ) a 10kg, spiral wrapped, offshore, go fast, never break, tip bendy bendy super duper rod. I'll match it to my trusty TLD15.

Let's not forget people, that the mullet season is only a few months away, so be prepared to get it while it is cheap.

I'm surprised that at least one of you Queerlanders/or Timmi wanna be a Queerlander, hasn't made some stupid remark;D

Maybe Newbs is busy selling cars:-X or organising his New Bigger Carnelpya, if he's got it yet, I don't think he has or we would have heard about it:P

Are you happy now, I think I've covered all of you:-*

And yeh we booked our diggs months ago.

That's better Rob, have you got the same digs as last year.

Newby is probably in jail for taking out his local boat electronics installer! (or the local navico rep).

Strewth.....
What a bloody mess this country is in.
Shiela's running the joint in both state and federal now.
It has never worked anywhere and we are proving that here now as well. DEFINITION of insanity is to keep doing the same thing the same way and expect a different result. Another example of this is Lucky Phil's fishing techniques. (and poofy pink drink antics)

And to top it off, I couldn't remember my bloody login and password and was swearing at the damn computer. I was trying to log in to my work computer...It must have been a while since I have been here for that to happen.

Well since I was here last I have been busy working. Then I work some more and when I finish, I go home and do some more work. I am still off the smokes and cant even remember the last single barrel jacks I had. I have been drinking........BEER........Yep, Newby on beer....I have found it to be extremely healthy (contains carbohydrates) and refreshing, not to mention GREAT dietary food. No really. 18 Months ago I was a very large 132.5kg. This morning, I am 106.1kg AND this is the very best bit, I can see my johnson again...;D No more sunshade over Wilbur.... its amazing how sunburnt it got...;)

But I cant say the weight loss is totally due to drinking beer. I think the work practices have had a lot to do with it too. Here is a Newby week in brief.
MONDAY...up at 6ish work by 8am.
TUESDAY, 6,30am race home from work for a shower, coffee with Mellissa and quick glance at the kids then back to work by 8ish. Home by midnight usually...Shuteye.
WEDNESDAY up 7ish, work by 8 then home around 6.30........oh, am Thursday to have coffee with Mellissa and a quick glance at the kids.
THURSDAY back to work by 8ish and always home by 11ish on a Thursday night...few hours shuteye.
FRIDAY back to it by 9ish then home by Saturday night at midnight. Maybe... I did do a 1 of triple back in January where I went to work at 7am thursday and got home 4pm Saturday. And I was forced to by the computer that was pulsing and looked like it was made of water and had waves....weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....The drive home was more interesting with trees running across the road. I went to bed at 11 that night. I will never stay up 3 days straight again.
Its a long story why I have had to put these hours in but as a little hint, I had 10 positions available at Motorworld just recently.
So the suggestion of the new Carnelpya is unfortunately so far from real it is not funny. I have only seen my boat twice since returning from the Hervey Bay Tournament in November. Once to get the long life milk when the floods were on and again on the 3rd of January to clean the 100kg of really rotten bait and the freezer that it was in, off the deck of the old girl.

Rest assured I will drop in occasionally and see what you lot are up to.
Thank you to Phil for the call and asking after my wellbeing.
ROZ YA BIG SPUNK....welcome back...Say G'day to the old man from me.
Deckie, I will see you Tuesday for coffee. You can let the peasants know how skinny I am...
If he doesn't, call Mellissa. She will tell you....lol... I never thought I would see the day I was called skinny. But DAMN I look great...And you thought that they couldn't improve on perfection huh?

NEWBY (is back)

[Lovey80]

Newby mate make sure you dont start wearing fancy jocks the missus with thing your up to something. All those late nights, not coming home for 3 days and all the weight loss, the fancy jocks would have to set her off ;);););)

I'm still trying to figure out a way to get up for this one. Want to meet you bunch of hooligans and pop my 1770 Cherry.

Nearly time to get our house in order.

For those that are taking boats, can we pm or email me the details:-

boat name
description
rego number
call sign
and mobile phone number.


This will be passed onto Marine Rescue Round Hill for ease of log in and off.

Also, can I get peoples houses and occupants, with a contact mobile number.

I will add these details to the original post #1, and can edit as we go along.

If anyone has not got a bed, boat, crew etc, put that up and we should be able to sort it.

VHF 81 is best to use there and 77 when going ship to ship.

Cheers Phill

We kicked off four years ago paying around $90/head for the week, last year was about $140?, this year we're paying $175, but we have stepped up to a much bigger place.
You can (if your lucky) still get the cheaper places, but it all depends on When you book, and what you want.
Last year we went for Views
This year we've gone for??? not privacy but away from neighbours( we can be a bit rowdy), but no views.
All the cheaper places were fine, but others (not AFer's) started booking the cheaper places before us.
You need to be quick as it is a popular time of the year.
Beaches of 1770 Realty
PRD Realty
See what they have

Great Idea, put phone in shirt pocket, lean over side of boat.........mmmm whats that in the water:oOops.

[wags on the water]

Darren

My shirt's ok Darren...:-X :P

[TimiBoy]

Murph,

If it has a pocket I'll buy two, because I can use the room for the phone and the glasses.

Please, return to the material used in the 2009 shirt. If it's that acrylic rubbish I won't be buying one at all, because I just don't wear it.

I don't give a shit what colour it is, except to say that I think both Maroon and blue make you look like a twat. Black's a good colour.

Or Red, with a bit of blue and gold! ;D;D;D;D

Cheers,

Tim

[murf]

Did my guts get bigger or were the shirts a little shorter last year?

Darren

the reason for the style/brand change last year is that some of us are bigger than the shirts that JB make :P :-X all my shirts are the same length :-*

maybe I should see a dress maker and see if I can get pockets stitched on along with an apron frill ;D (never been able to buy shirts with pockets other than in plain colours unfortunately) will get the plain black one with pockets if majority want that

the material in both brands of shirts is 65/35 poly cotton so I don't have to iron them ;)

and Wags I will make a special allowance for you and you can order what ever colour you want princess hehehehe

cheers murf
