You can't say good fishing without the proof!!
Sounds like you're both having a ball?
How are the 'children' behaving?

Re: Onslow WA
Too buggered to do much after work and one day off sadly, but we'll get to do more fishing soon hopefully, haven't caught anything YET!!
Girls are happy they sleep more than anything, got a few little birds who love harassing then when they are out in their cage
Yeah Bruce, tis a great life, even working, cause there's that glorious light at the end to strive for...........and money to buy stuff to make it betterer!!

Re: Onslow WA
We went out to Onslow, no room at the Inn so we went to get fish & chips before heading back along the one way road
guess what? the F&C shop didn't open till 6pm so we drove all the way to the CP that had no room, a shop that didn't open till late so their free water draw was all we got.. I reckon if they have no room at the CP a sign to say that many many miles back should say that.

Re: Onslow WA
Amazing what big mining groups and 5000 workers will do for a town!! Both Caravan Parks are in the middle of town Dotty and there is no Fish & Chips Shop, ya thinking of the same place?
IGA is open 8am - 7pm 5 days a week and Sundays 8am til 6pm, not like that any more hay? Even Geraldton IGA wasn't open on Sundays, must be 100 times bigger than Onslow.
Read our latest blog, I finally got to Onslow..........1 month after getting here!!!

Re: Onslow WA
We did a drive by a couple of years ago, but the local museum was worth the visit
The local garage was expensive for fuel, but when I asked to buy some oil for the genny to change it, they GAVE me 2l of oil that they had in damaged bottles. I had bought fuel first, wasn't as dear as Nannutarra

Re: Onslow WA
Yeah Dpope We agree with you regarding the museum, it's a ripper hay? well worth seeing.
The Old Onslow is well worth seeing too 30 minutes or so from New Onslow, ruins of Cop Shop is just amazing, then 3 Mile Pool Free Camp nearby well worth a stay too.............
