   Just about any of the causeways and crossings are good places to fish for barramundi in the wet season. They’re also good places to spot crocodiles.

     No, we weren’t fishing for barra Katie, and the river upstream was too muddy for trevally. Still, it was hot, no mosquitoes and a glorious morning, so the trip wasn’t wasted. And Gecko got some good photographs too.

   The two blokes leaning on the ute were discussing whether it was beer o’clock yet and I don’t think they had crocs on their mind.

   Bastard. Now we’re sitting at home having a quiet beer or three and pondering what to do with the day.

     maybe I should give this fishing thing a go?

       Absolutely. No funny clothes required, you get to drink beer when you get home (even if that’s before 0800) and you get to keep your balls.

         The way I fish I’m sure a g**f club would be a more effective way to catch one ……… with the way I play g**f, maybe not.

           Hand grenades work well. Or half a stick of Powergel…

   How’s the weather down there, by the way? Has the sun arrived for its 2012 ten minutes of fame yet?

     Hasn’t rained yet but it’s otherwise accurate

     You should try golf. You’re outside, getting a bit of exercise and you can drink beer while your at it (beer intake is exponentially proportional to fun)

       hmmmmm……..I don’t see snowfall listed. Is that a site glitch?

         No, just for Christchurch, not wider Canterbury

   Is that an amphibious ute?
   • KG says:

     February 7, 2012 at 15:02

     They’re all amphibious up here jonno. Whether they were designed that way is another question….

       ….just add a snorkle and dry the floor mats afterwards. Remember to send Gecko ahead of you to make sure there are no hidden potholes.

         She’d disappear if the pothole was deeper than
