I got a good aussie girl.
15 years and she has not broken either of the golden rules that were set from the day she moved in with me.
RULE 1: Never ever under any circumstances am I to be nagged. If I say I will be home at midnight and I get home at 4am, LIVE WITH IT and be happy for me cause I was obviously having a great time. I will mow the lawn, WHEN I AM READY.
RULE 2: If ya get fat, ya get single. 3 kids later and 15 years and she is still in great shape....
My gorgeous wife also prepares everything for me, raises our 3 kids. Cleans the house and all that domestic stuff and, GET THIS, comes and does 4-5 hours a day in our business.
Add to this, she puts up with me, and let me tell ya, that aint easy, and I reckon I done alright without having to import one
Oh she also has a great set of bolt on's. Oh, and she is 12 years younger than me....

Breakfasts are always bacon egg and baked beans in ham sauce sandwiches.
lunches are never cooked...Rolls with cheese, onion and tomato.
Afternoon tea is normally a gourmet platter consisting of 3 or 4 types of cheese with 2 dips, stuffed olives, smoked oysters, cabanas, pickled cocktail onions and a large jar of very very salty anchovies.... Normally my 10yo son and I eat all the anchovies.
And always always a kilo or 2 of Gladstone's finest, fresh caught, Red spot, Tigers or Huge banana prawns. Occasionally there is a crayfish or 2 on the platter too.
Dinner is always a cooked meal of steak, or lamb chops or pork chops or as we will be having on Saturday night out at Wistari Reef, a Lamb Roast.
Afternoon tea and dinners are always washed down with Tennessee's finest charcoal filtered, Single Barrel Jack Daniels.
Bring on Saturday....

Just me for a day - fruit (no bananas) and plenty of water. Perhaps a beer for the ride back. No damm museli bars - not since 1994.
If the kids are coming with me, then it is a different story (especially if the wife gets involved with the packing). Me - basically the above plus some sambos and less the beer. If the wife does it, she upends the kitchen into my boat!
Overnighters are a different story and involves nibblies (beer sticks - mmmmm) and port and rum and a main meal depending on where I am staying.

I generally just take bananas. They fill you up really well.
You'd seriously divorce your wife if she got fat? I'm a gym junkie so I can't see myself getting chubby, but I'd like to think that my marriage doesn't hinge on the number I get on the scales.
I can't believe all the people who take bananas on the boat! Dave would flip out if I did that. The ol' marriage would be in trouble then...
Yeah, some women actually know a thing or two about fishing. Who knew?

Beer is for washing the boat. Sometimes the it takes a long time to wash the boat. Sometime the boat needs washing a few days during the week also.
