Julie and I attended our first ever SEQ M&G and what a cracker of an event it was. Some new faces and plenty of the familiar ones too. Thanks Marty for putting this shindig together. Also thankyou to all those who made the effort to attend.

We decided to make it a two night event as traveling up from Coffs Harbour for the one night seemed silly.

Arriving at Tipplers on the Friday night (my first time there). Great weather and conditions were perfect;



A few pics of the boats there;





Sunday Morning, Julie and I decided to skip the morning BBQ and headed to the Tipplers Cafe - Very nice!





Is this one reason why Cats are better then Mono's? Captain Seaweeds boat sitting down at low tide. The blue boat - that's leaning over, I think belongs to Irene ?


Cheers,

Marty now that you back on line thanks for organizing the 1st Annual Tipplers M&G. Great venue and good midge free time of year. Hopefully people sleeping on the ground zippered up their sleeping bags tightly to keep the cold pythons out!

Giffo, using the full length of the loop does keep you out of harms way and level to boot. I see you nearly got yours out far enough, probably limited by the rope?

Cheers

FYI Marty........ Anthony

The name "UB40" was selected in reference to the signing-on document issued to people claiming unemployment benefit from the UK government's Department of Health and Social Security (DHSS) at the time of the band's formation. The designation UB40 stood for Unemployment Benefit, Form 40.[3]

Sooooooo not the comeback I was hoping for Phill.

[Lucky_Phill]

I am that old I actually knew what UB40 stood for, but wikied it to make 100% sure, I mean everything on Wikipedia is true, .... isn't it ???

I think " Old Salt " comes from a 1600's Red Neck Amercian term used to describe the " left over bits stuck on the end of ya harpoon upon completing the yearly consumation event " ???

I could be wrong............????????????

No one commenting on ya " Bags " Anthony ????????
