To quote John Kelly ‘ this morning was the swim of the week’. If you missed it today was warm, flat and clearish…just about perfect.

Agree with Sue, beautiful conditions this morning.
Still kicking myself I didn’t join the Dolphin Whisperer and his disciples for the bolderdash this morning. Queensie must have been brimming with mullets. But I’m sure we’ll hear all about it.
Snorkles, no blog points for us today??? Can’t believe we’ve been trumped by a blurry tracktor and wine cellar!!! Gotta lift our game.

Hellow Jimble Whisperer formally known as Rainer.
Great Bolder Swim. No Dolphins or Mullet.
I did see – 1 plastic bag and 3 jimbles AND many happy faces entering for the 7am swim as I was getting out.
I suspect they were probably so happy BECAUSE I was getting out. haha

The Jimble whisperer is last weeks news. You two need to come up with something else like a rescue or Dolpins to get back in the blog.
Snorks, Did I tell you about the dolphons?

Sorry to correct you but its well documented that the duskies don’t come back to Shelly till late January. Both SS and myself have referenced this numerous times. It’s becoming onerous having to correct peoples well intended comments but in the interests of accuracy for B&B shares’ saleability when it is listed on Aussie Stock Exchange, SS and myself feel it is important to correct these misconceptions.
What you are seeing is either big mullet, aggressive sea drag-ons or the big yellow floating thingy that Lesley saw some time back that habits Shelly.
Have a look at

or ask Lesley (who is more knowledgeable than SS and myself having studied the big yellow floating thingy in detail and is also well known for her backside appearances and attributes) to describe the the big yellow floating thingy, it should help clarify things and help you with future sealife identifications.
😉
Thanks
On a happier note, Miles, that was a really nice nipple piercing you were sporting this morning.

Thank you John S for clarifying this “yet again”
To add – I believe the floating yellow thingy has left to travel Lord Howe Island to mate with the purple watchacallit.
The obvious Mullet that snorks viewed are wanted for possession of steroids.
The sea life is sooo interesting at this time of year.
Note – Please keep an eye out for anyone carrying a bag around the 1/2 way beach.
To protect the sea life, we must catch this supplier of steriods. We don’t want the mullet growing too much bigger.

Hi Collie
When I first read the blog I actually thought the wine was up for grabs, but it looks like Vicki’s spent many lovely evenings thoughtfully reducing the weight of the racks for you.
