Thank you all.
This morning I spent a couple of hours on "acorn", Thank you Windy 05.
Put a temporary block on my internet banking.
Swoffa sent 2 initially free programs for checking for threats, installed and run, both came back with "no threats". Thanks Mate.

Jabsy, will be in touch when present flood threat's gone.

Noon Tuesday 29th. River still rising, but very slowly, still open for business, but be prepared to get wet feet. All's safe and well, apart from all the lost business over Christmas and New year break, but hopefully the improved fishing soon will make up for it. Out here we had 300+ mm[ from mid November before Darwin started, so some bait in the "runoff colour change" could be there when river drops.

Happy New year all, tight lines, and may the meteries be with you.

Please call me before coming up this way

Had a scammer phone me saying he was from 'Telstra' and that I had a hacker using my router. I was told to go to Woolworths to buy a $500 itune gift card to 'bait' the hacker. I was polite and put the phone down.
