If I Get To Go Away I’m Happy
I think it’s time for me to go away again, and I’m really looking forward to time off work.
Yeah, I get to go away this very weekend. I’m really looking forward to it heaps.
And this time I can’t go with my family because they have some sort of concert to go to that I’m not particularly fond of so they can’t come and I get to go with a friend of mine.
We are planning to camp in a tent. I have a great tent, canvas, water proof, big enough to be really comfortable and its forecast to rain, so I may need all of that. I hope it doesn’t rain though because rain isn’t what you need when you go camping.
We leave this Friday morning at about 6 am. We are meeting some other people at 9 and it will take about 4 hours to get where we’re meeting. I don’t really like getting up early in the morning, good thing I don’t have to too often.
But it’s not that much of a problem getting up early if you’ve got a holiday to get up for. And I’m looking forward to it so it’s not that much of a problem for me really.
But my car is quite old, very old actually, I really hope the car makes it there ok. It’s not that it’s breaking down or anything, in fact it goes pretty well eally. But it is old and I just keep my fingers crossed that it makes it and gets back home.
Saturday is going to be a brilliant day. Nothing planned at all, just a day to do nothing if you want. I plan to take fishing gear along and do some fishing and catch a fish, in fact I bought a new fishing rod this morning. Sadly I broke my old fishing rod a while ago, which was such a shame.
I made that fishing rod myself when I was about 25. I bought the blank and I also bought the whipping and the rod varnish and all the other bits and pieces that go into making a good fishing rod. I was pretty pleased with myself that I managed to make my own fishing rod, that’s cool.
Ive used that fishing rod for a lot of years now, and it was a sad day when I broke it and I don’t even know how I broke it, I was just walking through the trees and suddenly I noticed the tip of the rod broken off hanging in its own on the line. Boy was I annoyed.
It wasn’t worth a lot of money but it was to me. I mean I made that rod all by myself. And I broke it. So today I went back to the fishing shop and bought a rod, but it’s not as good as mine.
And I couldn’t believe. 45 bucks for a new fishing rod. They certainly aren’t that expensive now to buy. But the new one isn’t the one I made. I’d rather my old one than a new one, mine was special.
They’re probably cheap now because they’re all made in China like everything else ou buy. Anyway that’s a bit about my upcoming weekend, soon. I’d like to catch a fish and I hope it doesn’t rain, much
I’ll let you know what it was like when it’s over.
