I'd say send some our way - but last time we got rain from the north it was a tempest.

Hi everyone. So far I've caught 2 black snapper. We've only been out fishing 2 days  so it has been more reading than fishing. Termite has been used frequently. DH decided the other night he wanted chicken risotto. He copped a lot of flack from friends until he explained I could make it quite quickly.

I'm mainly readingg all the posts and not replying to many. I seem to be very aware of my time limits etc.
Update you soon. :-* :-* :-*

 I was just thinking about you today (and all that reading you would be doing) Hope you are having a great time. Not missing anything down here- today we were blanketed in smoke from controlled burns down south. Played havoc with the asthmatics .

Thanks. It haS been a bit too windy for fishing for a few days. Termite has been busy making dips for all the drinks time and also the buttermilk scones with homemade jam. I cooked the scones in our glass easy cook as I don't have an oven in the van.

A lot of 'excitement' here at the  moment. they have found nasty samples from sewerage in the ocean. The resort is being blamed. At the moment they are checking everywhere to see where the problem is coming from but have had no luck so far. they are getting rather concerned as the Health Dept and environmental dept are at them. do hope they don't kick us all out and send us home. the toilets were closed for 5 hours on Saturday and 7 hours on sunday. I'm very glad our van has a toilet and shower in it.

Hi to everyone. I am missing my daily fix of an hour+ on the forum.

Hope they fix the sewerage problem soon Chookie. But it's a good excuse to impress some more with Termite, sit back and relax  ;)
