Around Town

Well, I thought I would add some various photo's of some of the locals around town, and some of the amusing things I have seen when working.



Tripod, the Dingo with three legs.


Knife we confiscated one night, there is a good story to go with this, maybe another time.


Dugon head, apparently tastes good when boiled.


Pet baby sea turtle, was kept in someone's bath.


Emu Chick


My little mate, just wanted a cuddle....




Few of the local girls.


This snake didn't really like being picked up, don't worry was only a python.





My boys.... They come into the station almost every day, at the station we sell soft drinks, chocolates etc to the locals, these little boys hardly ever have money, I usually give them a chocolate or a Funny Face (icy pole) for free.... They are cool little kids, these boys call me 'Dad Darren'.....

I'm Back

Well it's been over 12 months since I have put anything up on my Blog, I've been a little slack, my girls have been wanting me to continue with little stories and photo's.  So much has happened over the past 12 months, over the past few days I've been sorting through photo's, I thought I would start with some photo's of life up here on Mornington Island.

Fishing Trips


Queen Fish, great fun to catch, as they put up a massive fight, usually put them back in once landed.


Little Mangrove Jack


My very first Barramundi


  Another Barramundi


The same small Mangrove Jack


My Spanish Mackeral, best fishing day ever.....



Smaller Spanish Mackeral


Went out in the work boat to break in the new motors, glad I took my rod with me this day, Spanish Mackeral, smashed my favourite lure, it needed new hooks after this.... I was getting paid to catch this....  I really love my job sometimes.....
