Default Re: Any Australian HHO out there?

Hey,

I lived in WA for 18 months or so, tried riding at a local school, but really didn't enjoy it there - I started helping out this lady a little bit, she's scottish but been in perth for 20 years or so I think. She breeds quite a variety of horses from welsh sec a's, highlands, andalusians and they seem pretty generously priced

Where are you Zaminda? Bunbury way? Thats where I was based, loved the dolphins there

Yes I am near Bunbury, about 20 mins outside, middle of nowhere really, but 50metres from beach! Sadly missed the season on swimming with dolphins, cancelled due to storm!

Hire a canoe and just go out in the estuary - we hired them from this guy (lives in Australind). I did this about 4 times, and saw dolphins each time bar one when it was a bit rough and we didn't make it outside the breakwater - make sure its high tide though, or you'll be dragging the canoe through the estuay

I run past the site of the last shark death every few days, which is rather sobering. We used to wade the horses every PM when the water was calmer, which was awesome

Where was the last shark death? In Bunno?

I never saw any thankfully, wouldn't have been going back in if I had
