Lord Howe Island – Fish Videoing Hazards
January 20, 2008 by cathy · Leave a Comment
Last month I got a call from a lovely lady who owns a restaurant bed and breakfast on Lord Howe Island so I packed up my little bag and off I flew to Lord Howe. Have you been there? Gee, the people are so friendly and laid back. The owner wanted me to stay a few days but I had inspections with other buyers all over the state and had only the day and night to get it all listed up.
If you have never been to Lord Howe and are looking for a quiet time this is it, although I had a great night out with the locals and the fishing there is to die for.
The fish on the beaches are all protected so I tippy toed down to video the fish and yes, you guesed it, fell in while videoing the fish. I managed to throw the camera so thank God the movies were saved but the tourists got a good laugh out of it.
If you’re looking to for a get-away life, yet still have a great social life look up the listing on my site. You never know we might see you there if you descide to buy it. The plane trip’s ok too. Everyone there knows everyone else.

Fishing Charter Sydney – Seasick on Botany Bay
January 5, 2008 by cathy · 8 Comments
Last month took me to the beautiful shores of Botany Bay to list a fishing charter. It’s a beauty if your interested.
Anyway when I was a little kid my good old dad, a retired policeman, took me fishing every single minute we had so I grew up a little fisher girl who rode the open seas of Jervice Bay NSW. Dad always said when we were fishing anyone who keeps a person out at sea when they are seasick should be shot. He claimed this as I was burling the fish up at the back of the boat. We always got a pretty good catch but it took a while for me to recover.
Anyway to list my business at Botany Bay it required looking over the vestle and inspecting the plant and equipment. It was a beautiful day and I couldn’t help but think “what a great life”.
As I was about to sign the vendor on the dotted line a little wave rippled the waters and I sheepishly asked the vendor if he wouldn’t mind me signing him up on the shore, emabarrased to say I was seasick. “My God,” he exclaimed, “we’re still moored to the dock!”
Never the less, we got on famously and I am very confident we will have a sale in the near future.
