Might be

BUT my employer of 18 years retrenched me a few months ago - so much for loyalty. Still I have an interview shortly so fingers crossed, I wouldn't mind so much but the weather over the last couple of months has been crap and when it has been good could not find anyone to go with mid-week as everyone who is employed is far toooooooo busy looking over their shoulder in case the same fate befalls them - still if I get offered a job today then I might treat myself to a monties in celebration !

Ok, Ok this is how it is

Fri, 2009-09-04 11:34

Ok, Ok this is how it is working for me, I am actually taking the lovely missus along for the ride as some of the others are taking their partners 6 of us in total for the boat. its a bit more expensive this way but what the hey were all gonna die one day???
The sweetner is that I must at a later date take the missus on an overseas cruise or other holiday......
So Im thinkin that I can be cheeky and say that this is your overseas trip luv.....But I think that I am already in front here so I wont push it or I may end up minus an appendage or something.

And yes it is most definately a business trip to survey the coast off Karratha or something like that for construction purposes.......Hee Hee

Now I just gotta get some more supplies.

Off monday night

Fri, 2009-09-04 14:40

In a 43 foot ketch loaded with dive gear, sailing overnight using the favourable winds.

Now what fishing gear to take ?? I really want to catch a red - can yoou get em on soft plastics as bait (except freshly caught) unlikely to be an option. Any squid over there ??
