No good about the roo, or your window - but all these things are sent to try us, I suppose - enjoy Tassy, take care getting on and off the boat, it is a pretty tight squeeze, but the guys who guide you to your spot are great - tuck you in snug as a bug in a rug!!!

Enjoy Tassy - one of our favourite things was Pennecot's fast yellow boat ride off Bruney Island - really exciting!!!
And a scallop pie is a must - the best was from a shop at Hamilton - no curry in it, just scallop juice and scallops!!!!! Drooooooollll!!!

Billeeeeeee mentioned the scallop pies after he'd polished off a plate of mussels. Ew! If you ever see us together, I'll be the one with the toasted cheese and tomato sandwich. Too bad about the roo, Copper. Was it early morning or dusk? Terrible timing as well. Let's hope all is smooth sailing (in more ways than one) from here on. Happy travels!
