Well, if you read my posts you will know I was travelling on the good ship "Spirit" all day yesterday heading to beautiful Tasmania and was up extremely late last night so today I feel like I have Boat Lag, is there such a thing. Maybe sea sickness has caught up with me????

Could be age related. I'm safe. I've ducked behind a big rock.

Wombat told me you were on the spirit, maybe that is why you feel like you have boat lag - in actual fact, you may just have a hangover

I'm presuming it is because Tassie is a few years behind the mainland (except QLD because they are 20 years behind everybody), so it is your body slowing down to try and fit in.

Rocky, You might be right.
Kandagal, I think you might have hit the nail on the head there.
Dunmowin, not one glass of spirit's or even alcohol past my lips, I was a good boy for a change.
Woolly, I can't say things like that here cos the local natives might stone me at dawn. There is a little critter over here that looks a bit like a small wombat but much much cuter. Just don't like the way they smile at you.

The Captains Table is very big and has many seats around but only special people like C1&2, C1's mum and dad and little old me get to sit close to the food end
I just finished changing my return booking and to my surprise I thought it was $50 to change but that is if you do it over the phone or at the terminal, if you do it on-line as I did it was only $15 so that was a bonus. Even if I change it again it still works out cheaper than I thought so I am a happy camper, overseas.

YOU do NOT need to be closer to the food, did you know they charge by weight on your way home, if you have a return ticket they just bill you the extra.

Wombat MATE I am as fit as a Scrub Mallee Bull and twice as dangerous. Only problem is, they are extinct.
I have done my exercise for the day, I walked out the front and bought the two rubbish bins around back for my brother.
I only have 1 hour to go and I can knock off. As a grey nomad, you can't start work till 10.00am and can't work after 12.00pm.

Hey Dougwe maybe you should practice the eat, roots & leaves although there are those who are rather large from following this practice .
