Anyone in NSW interested in trout fingerlings (currently 60mm).... please contact me....

Currently I'm looking to take first delivery on the weekend of 09/04/10....

Nah

OK... I'll take you off the list OBO....

Rup,
Glad you can source them. Missed out two years in a row, not happy. I sent a voicemail on home phone. Would be interested in trout. Hope to hear from you soon. f

rup you can put me down for 80 trout

They're here....

....now that i gotta see...
When can I visit Rupe?
Since I am so close and all

Was hoping you'd give me a call C1... you could have come down this arvo... and seen them arrive...

I've PM'd you...

I can assure you I'd have preferred and nice quiet drive.
But I left Lithgow at 6 or 7 not sure really days have rolled into each other let alone hours
See ya soon.. going for a feed now... look out Newtown here I come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, most times I bemaon that fact that Howard took our guns off us... In retrospect it was probably just as well...

Because I would have shot myself on Sunday... just because of plain stupidity...

Loaded up the transport tank about 08:00 with about 500 fingerlings for the Sydney folk...

Got interrupted by a couple of phone calls... then decided to spread the remaining fingerlings between the three small holding tanks...

Took some ammonia readings, and decided that as the day was going to be way hotter than expected... and I'd be away until after dark... to do a 30% water change on each tank...

Left home about 11:00.... dropped into Geoff's at Albion Park.... took the lid off the tank...

And saw floaters.... I'd forgotten to turn the air on... and hadn't checked before I left.... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ....

Whacked the oxy on.... and watched about 300 fingerlings either float to the surface... or die in front of me over the next half hour....

Talk about bloody stupidity... disheartening to say the least...

Dropped Geoff's fish into his tank (all OK)... drove back home, unloaded the dead uns.... reloaded and completed the Sydney deliveries...

The cat will eat well... for about the next year.... the rest will be frozen into "pilchard" type blocks ... for some salmon fishing....

Can't believe I could be that bloody stupid...



Real mixed sizes this batch... below... smallest (80mm)... to biggest (160mm)... average around 120mm..

shit rupe not a nice birthday present but the salmon will taste alright, hope all ends ok in the end

Sad to see Rup
It reminded me of a Tee shirt I saw today which appealed to my wacky sense of humor, it read;
"I make stuff up"


And Happy Birthday hope it will be all good from now
