Re: Eastlink tolls

That mob will take any trick to get some extra cash out of users.
I would love to NOT use that tollway, but we all know it saves us time.
But does it save us any money?
Happy Yakking!!

Re: G'day Vyakkers.

Hi there Yakkers, I joined the forum last year and it has taken me this long to get back to it. In the mean time I have owned two Kayaks and love the experience. It feels very refreshing to be out on the water. I like the rivers and would be very nervous out in open water. I started off with a Slaye...

Re: keeping the yak shining

Ideal'y we(well, maybe only me) would all like to store our Yaks inside, and not have to worry about treating the surface of the yak against the elements.

Re: My Mariner 10

She was bit heavy for this old fart, so traded her in for a 10. Native make great boats and the build quality is as good as anybo...

While it is new to me, you guys may already know about it. i was told to mix generous amounts of LEMON JUICE(bottled stuff is fine), SUGAR and some water. put it into a container with the fish fillets and leave ...
