GregH Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 For years whenever we were driving in traffic , Greg would always be checking out other boats and would comment "That'll Do Me " if he liked the boat or "That won't do " if he didn't like it. So we decided that a long time ago that we would call our boat when we got one "That'll Do" We inherited the family tinny from his Uncle a few years. Its defnitely not a "That'll do". But it does the trick for the time being. We have plans to trade up once the kids get a bit older and we can get out a bit more often . We should have gone with Watto's Neighbours - cause that's who are. But Wattos became sponsors on Fishraider after we became members so we stuck with That'll Do. Thats why I am always nice to MRS WATTO! Regards Lesley PS Good Choice of Post Roberta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolan Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Dear Sir I am both offended & upset by your comments. Its people like you who make my life a misery.... No one ever takes me seriously.... I am in the most sincere way possible, Mik, (Tears rolling down my face) Sorry for the way I not only upset you and offended you by my un-warranted comments about your character, but tarnished a good Fishraider with hurtfull lies. So,for the record...........Mik wasn't dropped on his head at a young age, when he was 5 he put a kitchen knife in a powerpoint and licked it. Then BOOF ! His hair when't all curley- like a cheap perm Ahhhh, what do they say, never let the truth get in the way of a good story. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hi guys Great fun reading the stories!! I guess I'd better 'fess up, seeing as how folk have been so open in their replies ...... Mine being Roberta was actually a stuffup - I filled the form in wrong & put my real name where my 'sign on' name should have been! OOOOOps! Couldn't work out why I couldn't sign of for a while!

costello Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Great post Roberta! Unfortunately no great tale to mine. Last name being Costello (no relation to Peter), Costa for short. I was going to use my nickname which is Custard, due to the day my English teacher got a bit shirty with me playing up, and in stuffing up the pronounciation of my last name she called me Mr Custard which just stuck. Thought it would be nice to excist in another world (or Fishraider) away from the taunts of that fateful day, so I went with Costa.

1975 Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 We came to australia in 1975 and dad who is a keen fisho always uses those numbers to remember what he left behind and be thankful for the chance at a better life in australia. I was never into fishing until last year, so when i joined this site i thought of dad and used them as well. billy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
