If you weren't on here....

Hi Brian, not wrong ! I think I saw those three brass monkeys last night ...

23 degrees here and temperature dropping by the minute. I'll have to turn off the fan soon!

Bongo, we wouldn't want you getting goosebumps on your sunburn :))

LOL

make the most of it bongo before you don your waterwings again

"productive" is so subjective, isn't it ? Good luck, I'm sure that when you realize how productive this site is that you'll be back. For example reading of the travels of others has helped the oil industry out quite a bit. Not to mention the 4wd and associated industries. Now what could be more expensive...oops I meant productive than that ?

I'll still be on this site....... and be able to check emails and such at the bosses office......... Just won't have it at home. Have a major project (5 small ones) that must be completed by January

Kim, that doesn't sound like you at all ! :))

I'm with you Wim,cheer's GREENDOG

Shifted 400 steers onto more feed yesterday, Tony.

Bright, sunny day but didn't get warm till nearly 1pm.

Don't think could handle your -4 degrees!!!!!!!!

Hooroo,
Bob.

*oops I HAVE TO PUT THE WHEELIE BINS OUT, todays the day the
Rubbish Truck comes, mate its all go.*



Thats the Wifes Job !

Yep, I know its a hard life, but some of us have to do what a man
must do, I help fill em up with the empties, and I let her play with
the Lawn Mower, its only fair that I share them chores.

just by the by Wayne,

did you get that HF issue sorted out?

Goodday Bob,
Its amazing how you acclimatize to whereever you live. I was just having a chuckle at footy, and some of the other northern boys sooking about the cold.I live in the central tablelands of nsw and a cold morning is minus 6. 5 deegrees at 7am is a beauitfull morning, and I would have to strip off once I started working.
You must be out in the channel country?
Hope you enjoy those Yellowbelly.
Cheers Pete

Know what you mean, Pete.

We used to have blokes come up here from Guyra, chasing pigs, and we'd be walking round with jackets on, and they'd be in stubbie shorts & tee shirts.

But have also seen Victorians whinge about the cold when that icy SE wind starts up, like it did on Tuesday.

Yeah, we're about 3 hours south of Winton, in the country where it hasn't rained this year.

Fish was good!

Hooroo,
Bob.

Been fascinated by the channel country ever since I read Kings in grass castles years ago. Where old Patsy Durack started at Goulburn was a stone throw from my mothers people property. They where the Macormicks.
Don't worry Bob I had the tables turned on me in Tassie a few years ago. Camped on Arthur's lake central highlands at a altitude of 9oo m in Feb. I had flown down so could not take to much clobber.Got up in the morning, and it was freezing, put every item of clothes I had on, and was still cold. Little old lady (local) comes over to me and asks if I have the flu. Now she has a pair of shorts and a short sleeved blouse on. Anyway I replied I could not believe how cold it was, she replied don't be stupid its the middle of Feb. Anyway I walked over to my mate and he checked the temp and it was 2c with a vicious wind blowing.
Those tassies are tough, and I grew up in the high country of the central west of NSW.
Sorry to hear you have had no rain. Brother has three small properties and plants oats all over the place in the hope one lot will get rain. We got 20 mm this week so it will get a start.
Cheers Pete
