My little piece of peace

Picture 6 vegan restauarant-with the mandatory irritating bongo drum serenade.
Surprised he has footwear on.Interesting pix though.

Sell the boat and buy one of those stands-usually make very good money...

 

i will head down this afternoon and take a look, same low tide 0.8m this arvo at 3ish oclock...

 

Hi Westie,
Hey we are "civilised-hippies" here, , the drummer has what is known as "japanese safety boots" (Cheap thongs circa 1950's) and the owner (with beard inside) has expensive sandals made from the hides of sacred Indian cows and good tread from second hand tyres...

 

Looks like Nimbin, everything comes with a side order of Mary Jane........ MAN!

 

Hi Moggie,
Sorry but the smokers are locally called the "ferrals", up for the eclipse and they went back to Nimbin and so because of "harrasment" :?: . . . .

 

Nimbin is feral, but ya have to do it, just once!

 

Nimbin-passed through there-the sound of bongos and the moaning hippies posing as buskers drove me out.

Seems it's not a plant,but a lifestyle..

 

BC is legendary.

So they tell me.

Must be the cold weather.

 

Well Thanks to Groper and his ability to put his head underwater to fit the rudder posts up the hole (I cannot as holes in the eardrums make submergine my head a VERY PAINFUL experience. I am eternally greatful to groper for his assistance in the true tradition of helping each other... Much karma and goodwill has been generated by his generosity of time and knowledge...

Rudders are in place and autopilot now works and I have a minor issur in a slightly overheating stbd engine - I hope it is a "minor offence" rectified by a bit of CLR in the inlet lines to remove any calcium (barnical shells) or whatever covering the thermal sensor... - - I hope...

Boy is it HOT down in Cairns - well the humidity and lack or wind whenever I go down there makes for most of the unpleasantness as I an occustomed to the milder climate up on the tableland...

Boat is sorted for a while and it is now back to the mowing and clearing up of fallen palm fronds and other stuff that litters where one would want clear neat grass...

- 010 - Some idiot needing a hair cut and beard trim... too old to worry...
- 162 - a ringneck with a better (200 or so words), vocabulary than I (does not swear - but is sort of repetitive), and very endearing and friendly...
- 278 - parked and handsome...
- 292 - free and friendly...

 

What going on with beards and boats.

I opened up this months Woodenboat magazine and every guy with a boat had a beard ?

Somekinda new regulation ?

 

Somekinda new regulation ?


...yep.

 

Thanks for the picture,I now have a clearer idea of what a "feral' looks like.
Next time I go to AUS I'll know what type to steer clear of-I guess this one has his bong and bongo out of sight.

He's cleaner than I thought they'd be,though I expect he's trying to grow dreadlocks.

That wern't a ferral, that be a bloody squatter bloke - go wash yer mouth wi carbolic soap...
The "regular ation" is to confuse them sleazy camera folks that take yer pitcha and sell it to the 'Sunday Times' (page three), givin some money to a poor beggar for 'a cup a tea and a sandwich' and callin it dredge or doug money or sommat... Brrrrgh Humbug, never give to them poor people agin thats fer sure...

 

Never could understand beards on boat guys.
While sailing beards are perfect seagull poop magnets, when working on boats beards magnetize fairing compound and get bound up in cordless drills, at the stern rail BBQ beards ignite and flare off like brush fires.........

 

You smell feral before you see feral... just by the way
