Just need to wait for a bit of rain, and we can go back, as a flotilla down that aquaduct. Much easier than walking.
Remember, that wasn't the snake you saw. It was the first snake you saw.

Sounds good. I'm having visions of a Pythonesque Hive flotilla reading this

True that! Still have a long way to go

The poor noodle did come out a bit early. I wonder if those sudden warm days woke it up (were they around this time?) I'm rather fond of "nope rope" and "danger noodle". Aussies sure have some fun names for deadly creatures.

Off to look up what the Bundaleer Channel is for, now.

It was a pretty warm day back when I set off

The alternative names for animals are gold...

There's others like Land Cloud (Sheep) or Pantless Thunder Goose (Ostrich)

Search 'The Internet Names Animals' for more. Some are pretty lame, others hilarious 😆


The official site for Spalding (!?) has a bit about the history of the channel. I find it interesting. Don't see many open channels built any more. When it comes to water infrastructure, we live in the age of the pipe

Which is reasonable. They do make a lot more sense though, have to admit 🙂

There is something cool about channels. It's like an ancient aqueduct...

Here's a link

Great reading! Keep safe with those snakes and spiders maybe too?

Wow, great pics and write-up about your journey thus far! Kudos! I think the magnets are a fabulous idea! 😃 The only catch is that you published the QR Code? Read this post twice (by mistake, I'm sure), 12 minutes apart, so the "Loving Hive" community "muted" the second post. That means it is the first post that someone will see when going to the @hive.magnets account, which is not good PR... 😬 My suggestion is [when you have time], write a really cool post about what Hive is: a fast, scalable blockchain with fast transaction times, no fees, with blogging, games, investment opportunities, etc. and publish it from that account so it's on top of the blog page!

Thank you @thekittygirl. I did notice that a day or so later. I had to edit the original post a few times to get the images looking right and for some reason, the Ecency app duplicated it instead of changing the original 🤦‍♂️

It's shame, but I can't blame them for muting it

Just got to look at it with a sense of humour. Can't change it now 🤣

You're absolutely right though, I need to make a new post for a better first impression. The difficulty will be making it different enough that it doesn't also get muted, while keeping the same basic message intact

Any suggestions on how I might do that?

Some lovely scenery on your walk :O

If it's not too much trouble could you put the heritage and recreation posts closer together to make comparisons easier?

That magnet idea is great!

And please watch out for sneks x_x

Good one here

Thank you

Wow!!! You’ve done so well! I was wondering why you back tracked on your Strava map on the 2nd day but now I know why. The sights look beautiful. I can’t wait to read about the rest.

Haha yeah, mystery solved 😄

Lovely sights. Next leg is up through more hills but it looks like there's more trees and scrub growing along the ridge, at least from a distance. Would be nice to get a bit of protection from the winds. See how that goes 😊

You going alright, mate? Haven't heard from you in a while.

Yeah going okay, thanks. A few k's away from Kersbrook now, where I'm hoping to stop and get something to eat 🙂

Aww, thanks for your upvotes Matt. Hope you are doing well! You should come by the show tomorrow. I'm doing a live psychic reading. It's pretty cool.

Hey @mattclarke ,

I just had my first live reading with a small group of 5, and it was amazing! I was so happy with the way things turned out. It was super fun, we had some deep space chats, and then I did a reading and advice on a lucky member in the audience. She was amazed and excited about the whole thing.

So I'm thinking, maybe I could do chats in the evenings for my Australian friends. Cuz it'll be Sunday morning for you. I would LOVE to have a few of you blokes on to test out the waters. But I know it's a subject that's kind of new to people, so I'm really easy going and fun -- I'm just the same person as I always was. I just also happen to do psychic readings on people if they are up for the fun.

What do you think? Do you think we could get a few people to come and give it a try?

Hey :) Glad it went well. The psychic stuff isn't really my thing. Thanks for thinking of me.
