With a Thong in my heart?

G'Day Shaun,
On the long weekend we detoured to Dunbogan. What is the Thong tree all about ???

You've got a nice looking boat too BTW.

G'day Greg,
I've got no idea of the story behind the 'thong tree' (if there is one), did you also see the seat directly under the tree, crafted from concrete complete with stubby holders! :lol: .
If I remember i'll take a photo tomorrow of the thong tree.

cheers
Shaun

Phillip, may know if there is any story with the tree....its where we launch our dinghy's.

Shaun,

Go over the road and ask Jenny what the story is/was.
I think she had something to do with it.
If you don't know Jenny, ask Bob D.

Hi Phillip at Airlie Beach.

Let me know if you ever want to do a boat swap. In winter of course.

You are warm and we are freezing.
I went out on the harbour on Wednesday to take Sea Lady to get her mast removed.
Still have not thawed out.

Oh Diana,

I'm sitting here slowly rolling from side to side ;) and I have been thinking about taking the T shirt off. :shock: :D

Today we got to the 26 degree mark, :D would have been higher but for the cloud cover.

As far as a swop, I think I'll pass at this stage :P , until it gets cold anyway :lol:

We will be going slowly until 1st August when the the Shoalwater Bay Military area will be open and I can get south.

New blog tonight, then none till next weekend when I'm at MacKay.

Keep warm you lot, Phillip. :lol:

PS Good to see my mooring is still there Shaun.
