Coping OK

Mon, 2009-01-05 21:44

Spend 10 hours a day in aircon (Office or car) when not onsite and then spend 2 hours a night brick paving or landscaping.... just love DLS this time of year to get things done in the "cool". Next job is to get spa hooked up electrically so when the next heat wave hits we will be going nuts also but only chasing bread and butter stuff.... need heavier rod and reel to hook one of those "strange" mako things with the coloured floaty type ring around it's belly shown in your previous post Laughing Smile

Cheers.

David

PS..... Just hope conditions are same as in Harro's pics in 4 weeks time as shown here http://fishwrecked.com/node/18589

would roll in his grave ( if he had one and hadn't died of thirst and heat exhaustion) to hear what a lot of sooky bubs need air conditioning these days. Bloody luxury!

yeah its great in the back of a fridge truck.

but then out of it, and then your back in it, and then your out of it, and then you are back in it.

then you jump back in the cab with an aircon that doesnt work.

at least it is good for keeping your drinks and crib cold.

Love it, whats that saying for you fellas

Tue, 2009-01-06 14:27

 they must have been hangin'  high.  Carnarvonite Bob used to take all the cray bait up to Geraldton for the Co-op., in the B double, Xmas time he'd come home with some cooked crays for Xmas lunch, love the taste of Geraldton crays, they seem to be sweeter and then he'd stop and get tomatoes & rockmelon as well miss it.  But he's been retired three years now.
