Just got a text from a mate who said he's just landed two nice salmon in the 12-15lbs range. Maybe I should of gone out, plus I could of stopped at Ambleside and got a Subway sandwich.


We skipped off lectures a bit early and had a toddle around some of the sea wall. Didn't have my proper camera, just phone.

HID wanted to go to your restaurant and page the bloke with the pies but we ended up having a rather uninspiring beef burger at Earls instead. Still it was my first encounter with real food for a while.

Finally some solid food.
We had a great time- no pies - we shared the seafood platter and I had the Barramundi.
Gotta say I liked the Trading Post S.M.A.S.H Saison- only problem was asking for the embarrassingly named pint. We would have had fun moaning about the local yokels..opportunity missed.

Yawn - more sun going down in Van Vegas....

Bananahammock - where the hell are you- we need photos

This probably has Oink's petrol station on the left of the photo

No, I use the one near GI but when it had shut down for a couple of years, I'd often spend a rather lovely and tranquil evening after work going round to that very said gas barge to fill up, although once, unceremoniously, I think I did a back flip (in just my pants) off the roof of that floating petrol station. Edited to note, I might have climbed up on the Chevron sign but it's bit of a blur.

In mitigation, I was very very drunk.

You should of ditched the ball and chain and got a couple of grams of blow off the concierge and whisked yourself off down to the No. 5 Orange. I would' do the t sort of thing but crazy middle aged people do it . . . . "I'm still young damn it!"

Last sentence is somewhat superfluous.

Oink answered as if a serious question. Mind you, perhaps that was a whoosh overhead too.

I didn't think my comment would cause confusion.
