Division 4 keeps top spot
OUR Division 4 mob finally had a game at home against their mates from Nyah this week and just managed a win by one shot.
One rink up, one rink down. Up by one overall.
Division 1 came out of the blocks on fire against our mates from Swan Hill. At smoko they were three rinks up and firing on all eight cylinders.
I do not know what Swan Hill put in their coffee but they dropped over a dozen shots on the first end after smoko.
Two rinks down, one up. Down overall. All Division 1 can do now is to try and upset the teams above them for the next two weeks.
This week away to Racecourse and Division 4 home to Racecourse. Come over and support them Saturday arvo.
Could you please get your 100 up games out of the way before the end of the season.
What has bred this year
WE have been through a fair list of what has bred and we all know that there are millions of frogs around.
For those of you that have got a swimming pool or somewhere you do not want frogs to go, a 50-50 mix of white vinegar and water around the pool or where you do not want them to go, bingo.
After a couple of nights of this, bugger all frogs in your pool. But you have to keep doing it to keep them away.
There could be a bit of panic buying of white vinegar in the local district so get in early.
The most important thing about there being plenty of frogs breeding is that our southern bell frog is now in plague proportion in our district.
These very important frogs are in the top 100 of our endangered list in our great country.
I was talking to the chairman of SunRice and he dose not like to go around his water after dark because of the risk of running over dozens of southern bell frogs.
My young fella had a few mates up from the city last weekend. Some of them are in the engineering side of development down there.
He was telling them about our successful breeding program of the southern bell frog up here.
They were not impressed because if something is going to hold a development up, it is either a bandicoot, some sort of finch or a bloody southern bell frog.
They spent a bit of time out after dark taking photos so they could show everyone that there is plenty of them.
The little ones you see in your gardens are usually spotted marsh frogs.
Southern bell frogs are big buggers up to 10cm long and are usually green or have got plenty of green stripes on them. Most of the time they are hard to find and they are very jumpy.
The best way to catch one if you want a closer look is to put your hand in front of them and they will jump into it.
They are not very smart as they also love to sit on the road. Could be why they are endangered.
They also sit at about a 45-degree angle. Most other frogs sit flat.
Fishing report
STILL bugger all.
