We've been naughty

 Took the boys down to complete angler today as we needed to stock up on plastics etc, was thinking on spending a couple of hunge buuut $650 later we are well stocked. Thought farkit might as well do it all in one hit. Just gotta get out there now.

 Well I don't feel so bad now.

As my plans didn't work out as I had anticipated this weekend, I am still without a boat so decided to have a little look at the local tackle shop and walked out $387 poorer. 

Maybe next weekend I will get to use the gear

 Good to see that happens to others Andy, went into a kitchen store with the wife to get my son a new knife block, my wife decided we needed one too, plus one of those, and one of them, $750 later we walked out. Lesson learnt.

It's good therapy Andy

Sat, 2016-08-13 17:27

especially after a long week at work.  Years ago, almost every Saturday morning I used to visit most of the tackle shops which were local to me.  By the time I returned home I was a peace with the world once again and ready for another week.

 I got stuck in at Whitworths and came out about $900 poorer, and I don't even have a boat yet. Picked up a nice little Raymarine Dragonfly 6 sounder /gps unit with all of Australia map for $600 plus a few goodies for safety.
