Transkie Times

Well, from what you may have gathered I have been away for a few weeks. Times are tough when you are unemployed but there is no use getting yourself down about it. So I was lucky enough to head off back to my homelands and take the shoes off, and basically step away from modern living for awhile. Those of you who know it will understand what I mean. I did vote and never heard what happened, the pug flu was going nuts but we were happy. I think the world is too small and we now have everyone as a neighbour, hopefully you gathering my drift. 

So anyway I am back in the swing of things and moving back into society. Logging on in other words. 

From the photo's I took you can see it was very kuk, the E.Cape weather played its part and has many days in baggys were had by all. I took up the much talked about fishing fad of drop shot and its proved to be quite good. It took some time to get the ball rolling but once you know what you looking to do it can be great fun. I fished alot of estuaries in our area and was quite lucky to pick up a few decent fish. I can recommend it to anyone. Give it a bash.

I am not sure if I have mentioned it before but hopefully later this year I will be running past our spot whilst doing the Wildrun. Its a ultra trail run covering 113 km over three days. I haven't done anything like it before so it will be a long winter of getting the legs acclimatised to the beating they will no doubt take. Check out www.wildrun.co.za for more details.

Hope your Autumn is going well and you are getting out there and appreciating the freshness of the air. 

Breathe it in...
