2 days ago I would nearly agree with 'scrudge'. 30 of the wife's side lumbering on our doorstep tomorrow, with me working flat-out up until Friday with no time to prep for the onslaught.
Being the only family that live by the coast i decided to make an attempt at providing some seafood and beach fun for the ring-ins, so Saturday morn i dusted off the rods/reels and take the boat out. Picked up a nice gummy shark (flake), a few snapper and mowys for the bbq.
After a day of cleaning the fort yesterday awaiting the upcoming onslaught tomorrow, i woke up this morn and decided to try my luck on catching some fresh squid for a couple of hours... ended up with a bucket full of calamari for a few hour's quiet fishing off the rocks.
Got home, had lunch and noticed a bit of breeze so took to the beach with the big (ws) gear and had a 2hr awesome flatwater blasting sesh!
Kicking back now with a brew after taking the kids to see the 'Santa' concert at the shorefront.
Tomorrow - fresh fish and calamari on the bbq for the guests, followed by a wander down to the beach with a handful of sups, surfboards and boogie boards and esky...
I think I've been de-grinched!
