Ni Sa Bula,

Can't believe it is November already. Happy Birthday to Andree and Annie M., hope you get your presents OK. I thought I should quickly just add another posting to let you all see the "new" boat. I'm still not so sure about it's name, No Bananas, but I'm sure it'll grow on me, especially if we do manage to catch more fish than we did on Coastal II.

Here's a bit of a preview of our Maiden voyage, we won't mention that one of the engines broke down, so had to turn around and hang out not too far from home, we had a great day anyway. Fishing competition coming up on the 25th November -- any takers ???

It's also the start of the usual busy pre christmas time, the kids have library week this week at school and it's been a major finding things for costumes for all. It culminates in a Character parade on Friday, so I'll take some photos and post them on the weekend.

Halloween isn't a big deal over here, but we did cut out a few pumpkins and got together with a few other families at the Mecure (Vinaka Vakalevu once again Shelley and Paul). The kids got to dress up and get lollies, which is really what they are mostly interested in anyway. It'll be a busy week next week too, with the Melbourne Cup, Guy Fawks - again not huge here, but Diwali on the 9th is a big deal.

Lastly, have to share a brillant YouTube clip ( thanks Miriam - love it )





Have a good day all -- moce xxx
