Re: Today at the ramp.
Good on you RB, it’s always nice to know there are good people around.
I was at bunnings Sunday and a fella with his little daughter in the trolley there saw my wife and I talking about our purchase and offered his Ute to help us get it home.
We didn’t need his help but we thanked him and we were both quite shocked that a stranger would offer such help.
It’s nice to know there are people (like you RB) that still have time for random acts of kindness and assistance.

of passion for the sport.
Some things become a liitle harder to manage but most of us want to keep it going
as long as we can handle it.
Just can,t imagine not using the boat,maybe will graduate to the piers eh?

My dad (my fishing buddy) got parkinsons some 15 years ago and it was tough watching him decline and loose his freedom to fish.
He passed about 2 years ago and I miss our fishing trips dearly.
Well done RB85, I help where I can, mind you I fish solo a lot these days HA
Cheers Jed

Same situation with my Dad, jedgpz, just a different illness. Some great memories, but hard when he couldn't get out for some respite.jedgpz wrote: ↑Tue Mar 05, 2019 7:56 pmTrue Blue,Blue wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2019 6:39 pmIt,s very hard to accept that one,s fishing days are drawing to a close after a lifetime

Smart thinking there denis. I try to stay away from old sailors with one eye too.
