[COLOR=indigo]Cargos on the Wharf - restaurant, right on the harbout wall, my son is Head Chef.[/color]

I'm down that way every second day when the weather permits, with the dog,
I'll have to call and say Gday, I'm a class 3 diner, take away fish & chips from the front counter,ha ha, but perhaps my wife will take me there for my big birthday lunch in June.

The restaurant seems to do a decent trade, especially in the Summer months when we get invaded by the Sydneysiders, It's suprising the number of British tourist's that I have met around Kiama harbour, they always comment on how beautiful the area is, and can't believe I got here for 10 quid.

I'm quite suprised the tourism board don't promote the little blow hole & Saddleback lookout the same as the big blow hole ? it is an astonishing view from S/B on a nice day,
some years ago I thought of starting up a tourist bus, taking people around showing them the sights, even the falls etc over the mountain, but red tape & spiralling insurance premiums put a stop to that idea.

There is a cheap family restaurant at the Gerroa Fisherman's Club, at the southern side of Gerringong, the views are fantastic on a good day, looking out over the bay & 7 mile beach, but the food & selection is not as good as Cargo's.

Have you thought of giving the immigration minister a complimentary dinner or lunch at Cargo's ?

RVN, Illawarra Mercury, Wollongong Advertiser & the Lake Times, Thurs,Fri & Sat are the best days for the Mercury, all have web sites.
Our Grandaughter goes to Mt Terry, seems to be a nice school, popular too.
The Centrelink website may have lists of jobs on line, that's where you go when you're unemployed here.

Tee hee!

Although when they ran a Ski Lodge in Charlotte's Pass and littleun was a baby, he used to put him in a carrier thing on his back while working in the kitchen. Dear old Health & Safety would have a fit!!!

I'd love the opportunity to carry him round all day - both of them in fact. Sorry, getting mushy.

Jean
