@Determined - think I am sounding like my mother, a friend once described her as a 'tough old broad' LoL.
Have a wonderful time bro.

Was a good day on the water 😊

S1 caught an undersized fish and S2 caught a sand crab. Crab was legal size but sent it back, too much work for me for not much meat. And they too bitey lol. Too many bare feet in the boat to bring it in so shook it off the hook outside. 

I made a few amateur mistakes but everyone had a good day so goal achieved. (Most importantly I didnt runnout of fuel lol )

what a lovely day @Determined

[Determined]

First time out on the water in a long time @Shaz51  nice weather for it at the moment. River not too busy considering it is school holidays. Didnt even consider our usual location, way too busy on school holidays.

Overjoyed to hear that you had a great day out on the water @Determined. These are the times that need to be remembered. I bet your boys loved it. How did your little one go? And things with your Darling? Were they okay too?

Bub went well @soul, and darling also. 

Bub wss not pleased with the movement of the boat to start with but once he got used to it had a great time. Did well considering he was confined to such a small space for so long. Managed the trip without anything being sent overboard this time so that was a bonus lol 

Darling was a bit anxious this morning as family outings often go bad, last boat trip was a complete disaster but she coped well considering we had a couple of hiccups along the way. I think seeing the boys so happy helped. 

I was hoping we could get out again but she seems to be organising activities for herself so it wont be possible... (just by way of timing) a little disappointed but not going to push it... will take the boys out by myself or see if mum wants to come with us.

Something that made me laugh today

Something to be grateful for today 

Managed a 600km drive (return trip), have been feeling flat and fatigued so didnt know how I woild go. The  children traveled well and weather was nice when we reached our location (Forecast was for rain) so that was a bonus 😊
