Jingle Bell Rock

Found a new hobby to keep us occupied this weekend...crabbing. Went to double bay yesterday and today which is a bay near to us where there are loads of sailing boats and ample opportunity to drop a line! I use the term crabbing very loosely...we had fishing wire and hooks, a stick as a rod, bacon as bait, and a bag of sand as a weight! And there were no crabs (and the fish kept eating the bacon). There was a big squid/octopus thing that we kept attracting with the rashers but when we got it on the line it was too strong and so broke our line as we tried to reel it in. We persevered but couldnt get it to the surface. Entertining all the same.

Last night it was one of Sinnys mates leaving partys (hes been here since April and is heading back to the UK on Monday) It was at his rugby club so we went there for a few beers then went out into the city. He said he'd been getting stick for having long hair and stubble, so Im sure they had a shock when we rolled up!


Today I left my phone on the train, but the very kind honest owner rang Amey and I am going to get it tomorrow on my way to work. The guy works in the police department so his PC honestly did wanders as Im sure 99% of people would have kept it.

5 more days in the office. Fingers crossed my parcel will arrive tomorrow.


"Geez! Don't flash these babies around here. There could be girls on this floor!"
