Well I am not taking June to Broke Back Hill. That is a mans town where real men roam and play with their boats. Andy's boat shed it the last bastion of Australian manhood left on the big island

I am putting this link here because it seems to be down on the Snow Cat thread. In Australia we would have to go to the mountains to do this. I can not ever see it taking off in Broke Back Hill eh Andy?

As we discussed on the phone Douggie it will be a good idea if we move this party to Broke Back Hill.
Wayne do you fancy a week in The Hill sometime in March? Bring boats 'n beer and Andy will supply the women.

I can hear the surf from my holiday shack ( mum's place ).
Fishing drinking, surfing, bbqs, sleeping on the beach... , things my 22yo daughter claims are 'so pre-millennium, dad !' .no iPod/iPad/MP3/2G/3G.. yup, just the way i like it .. now hush up and fetch me another coldy....!

as a footnote: Ive not seen the shack since early last January...work has me busy here [and OS] ... I prophecise another mega bbq with abundant beer and babes for new year's eve celebrations at surf's edge. [ hic ]

No, you will all say...what a dumb arsehole he is, as he clings to a bus stop poll to stop him from falling down as he shouts abuse to all the natives and finishes every sentence with Scotland
