thursday 24th march

moving day. the packing went well, probably because we weren't worried about putting anything away properly as we were only moving down the road a bit so that saved a lot of time. we were parked in our new spot by 10 / 10.30 am and set up by lunch time:

here we are all set up, we are getting better at putting the annex up each time we do it, it went very smoothly today.
seeing as it was lunch time when we finished we decided to head down to the squid shack for lunch, good service, good food, nice atmosphere, we will probably go back there. after we finished eating we had a look around and saw these guys hanging about:

they obviously knew something we didn't because the next thing we knew they had scored a handout from some people who had been out fishing and caught some tuna and a salmon. they were cleaning/filleting their catch and throwing the leftovers to the birds who were loving it:

 this guy was lined up patiently near the table:

robbie of course stopped to chat to the fishermen and scored as well, he was very happy with the tuna fillets he was given.
we went for a walk to the old caravan park to check the mail and to visit with ray and margaret, very nice people, had a drink and chat with them before coming back here and booking a tour on the kalgan queen riverboat for saturday morning, i am looking forward to that.
robbie had a call from an employment agency this morning and he has a couple of days work next week, labouring, he has to go in for an induction tomorrow, i am going to go shopping while he is doing that. his white card arrived today, they are obviously much more efficient than whoever processes the national police check applications because 2 weeks on i am still waiting.
well i'm sitting here yawning away, must be bedtime i think.
