Not sure what he's bringing. Message contained four letters, 'cool'. All that means is that he'll be at my joint Saturday morning half an hour before I expect him.

One time he lived off coffee scrolls for a week. He used them as bait for wombats and possums and beat them to death with his tent or something. I heard he prepared them by marinating the fillets in tequila and then slow cooking over a packet of Marlboros. He made a PFD and a sail for his Hobie out of the skins.

There is a permit required to camp on any of the islands in the marine and coastal park.
Available online and free of cost.

Ring David Jones of the Snake island cattlemans association on 5682 2905 to check availability of the huts.
Would hate to get there and it's all full from the Mid winter Ben Hur festival

I have to print it out, write on it and then mail it to someone in Foster.

If I don't hear anything, assume it's been approved.

Yep.
