[QUOTE="RossN, post: 188459, member: 9268"] Reading theses posts really brought back memories- I left New Zealand in 1989 and ended up at one stage living in Swakopmund working on the Rossing Uranium mine as a contractor. We used to drive up the beach at night with a bottle of port and cast just short of the kelp for barbel (large catfish). The night skies were the clearest I have seen anywhere in the world, and if the fishing got busy and we stayed out all night the sunrises were unbelievable. Work that day wasn't. I have often wondered what Swakop looks like now, back then it was a little slice of Imperial Germany. The beer was great though, I suppose that is what happens when you get Germans to settle a desert! Hot barrels and tight lines Ross [/QUOTE]
