They add up quickly..
I had more coins than I though during our recent move.
Definitely time for a cull...
Some will probably end up here.

As most of my baitcasting reels and rods are pretty much wreaked from locking up the drags and skull dragging big bluebone groper out of the rocks at Sharks Bay, I have had to get myself a new rig.
As I can only cast one handed yet and I wanted something that could handle a decent fish and also had a bit of distance casting ability I teamed up this rig.
I have a 10 foot Ugly Stick rated at 8.5 KG Matched with a Pfluger Trion 3LP with 25lb S.A.S Braid .
Should Do the Job

All coins & bank notes packed up.
WOW what a job, gotta do a cull in the next few months.
I wanted to take all coins up in my car, but if I put them in the boot,
the front wheels would lift off the ground, not a good idea for a front wheel drive.
So some have got to go up on the truck, I had to repack a lot as they were just too heavy,
So I've got coins with kitchen stuff, laundry stuff, lounge room stuff, stuff stuff.
Made a list of all boxes so I'll know exactly where they are.
At the moment we have over 100 boxes of stuff, luckily we have a back veranda where we have all packed boxes,
we had to go out today so I lock up the house as you do but, our whole life is out on the back veranda & I lock up the house where's the logic?

I think Nemo was very afraid he is lonely too cause Adolf is no longer with us. Sad face. I am seriously considering going a terrarium over goldfish. After 30 years of killing fish I think my time as a fishmonger is done.

Hello,

All animals eventually die. A Terrarium would be nice, and you could keep Frogs or a Lizard. If you garden, you can feed snails to a Blue Tongue. They love them !

robbiegal · September 11, 2015, 10:40:43 PM

the plants yep, I have pot plants here that I have had for the last 15, 16 years
the frogs and lizards ....... hummm
i'd probably end up with a freezer full of dead reptiles

my fish only seem to live for about one or two or sometimes a few years then

bye bye fishie
at least we got 15 years each out of the dog/s

thanks for the nice thoughts Chris

Yes fish can be very temperamental to say the least and any sprays used around the house can kill them easy. I've thought about setting my tanks back up a few times but then think of the hassle cleaning etc so put it back on the back burner but one day I might get more but also not while I'm going to the odd show as I don't think it's fair to ask mum to look after them as she has her had full enough lookin after me :blush2:

Coiny Chris · September 12, 2015, 12:50:21 PM

Hello,

For ease of care, a Lizard. They are native ( a Bluey ) and being a simple animal they dont have many health issues that can make a Vet rich. Good with Kids, and a good conversation starter.

Quote from: 'markn' pid='43013' dateline='1393670414'I spent a few hours today getting the old built in bbq area we've got here ready for a reno. But that's boring. So when I'd had enough of that I finally got to building my arcade game cabinet which was a lot more fun.

Hey, it's been more than a year since I posted about this, but tonight the arcade machine is functional! There's a few bits a pieces to finish it off completely (no sound yet, no power to the LED buttons and the PC isn't bolted down inside) but it works. Yay!
