Sunday 17th June
Today
we had Vicky her partner Adrian, Olivia 13yr & Jamie master 8 come
down for the day. It was Jamie's 8th birthday during the week &
as the kids had school we decided it would be best to come at the
weekend. They came for lunch which Vicky left behind at home in the
fridge hehehe, they went off & bought themselves subway while
Brian & I had some quiche that I had made. The guys & kids
spent most of the afternoon fishing off the pontoon, catching a total
of 2 Pike eels yucky bloody looking things big white things with
vicious teeth, 2 Bream great eating but they went back in, & two
beautiful Mud Crabs both female so they had to go back in, (not
allowed to take the females). Around 3.00pm we had afternoon tea, I
had made a banana cake & put candles on it for Jamie, you should
have seen his face it was a hit that's for sure. The family left
around 4.00pm to head back up to the Sunshine Coast via the mongrel
Bruce H Way. We had a great afternoon the weather was good nice &
sunny. One rule granddad made the kids adhere to was they were not
allowed on the pontoon without wearing life jackets - Jamie tried it
on & turned on a real paddy, soon realising everyone else was
having fun down there & decided if he wanted to join in he had to
put the life jacket on - this time with no hassles, Grandad 1 - Jamie
- 0.
Above fish is a Bream nice eating but we didnt keep it - dont why actually as it was the biggest
one caught. Below is the Mud Crab - which went back in.
Below photos show the ugly Pike Eel which definately went back in.
