i notice at the bottom of the board we advertise friends & when you click on them it takes you to the site mentioned have you noticed that aquarium keepers dont exist (the site that is)
ps whats that you have put in the club better rephrase that in case fishpaw reads this you know what he's like

I'd made a note somewhere that it seems to have disappeared.

I just this morning sent an e-mail to Ron, querying what happened.

I just haven't got about to removing that Banner yet. Haven't heard much out of Mike lately either.

Are you entering Jonno's photo comp? I think entrys close today, I might have a quick look, and see if there's a chance I could beat any of them.

have already posted in potm posted my L155 acanthicus hysrix so hope when voting time comes you vote for it that is if you like
was mike involved with that site aswell then ?

Mike, I think co-runs Aquatica. When I came across Ron, the two of them were already exchanging Posts.

I think it was Ron who pointed Mike in this direction.

Ron had some interesting stuff, with his Murray Cod, Scorpians, and lizards.

ah thats who ron is bundy the murry cod man

No, Bundy's another bloke entirely.

Bundy runs an Aquarium over in Adelaide (SA). Ron's a Shearer from central Victroria.

Both of of them have a Cod, so to speak.

sorry now i have checked back

It's a pity neither of them visit much. I like to see a few more pics of the Cod, and learn a bit more about them. I'm afraid that for 3 or 4 generations, my family just caught 'em, and cooked 'em.

They do taste good tho'. My Grandfather, and Auntie, used to take me fishing when I was very young. And often we'd camp somewhere along the Murray. I've even camped in the Murray a couple of times, on the sandbars, during winter.

When you're living 'rough', catching what you eat, there's an extra 'edge' to the meal. I've had some really good tucker out there. Somewhere in the family archives, is a photo of my Auntie, holding a 40lb Cod she'd caught up at Piambie.

I sent a note off to my Sister, to see if she has it.

I still haven't gone through all of what I have yet. Most of what I've seen so far, is from the 20's through to about the 60's. I'm sure that pic was taken in the 70's.

well fingers crossed
mind you i must admit i love looking at old photos of people & places i know

Well I've just acquired a heap of photos of my Great Grandparents, and their children, and other family links.

Some of these people I've known all my life, but never actually knew quite where the relationship was, if it was there at all. 'Auntie' or 'Uncle' can be a very loose term of phrase.

I was very surprised to learn how long my family was in a particular country region. I was out by a generation or two (late).

so wheres the photos ? dont be holding out on us kana

What? You really want to see that stuff?

I scanned most of them to CD some time back, and I stumbled across all that yesterday, so I guess I could pop a couple up. Pic's of rural Australia after the 'Great' war.

I haven't spotted that fish pic yet. And haven't heard back from my Sister. Perhaps a reminder note.

Just give me half a day to catch up on my Babble admin.

This is not the one I mentioned, it's actually two generations earlier. But there are fish to be seen. That's my Great Grandfather on the right. I'd hazard a guess at late 1940's, early 50's.
