    I've been on the Wellington punt countless times. Imagine 6am, dark and pouring with rain. I'm the only car approaching. He runs out from his cosy cabin, starts her up and lets me, and only me, onto the ferry, with a smile, g'day at start and finish, There ya go, thankyou sir. have a great day.
    Unbelievable service. That guy is a 9.95.

    • @nordic5490
      @nordic5490 Рік тому +4

      It is a good thing. The Murray is getting a good flush, and the trees in the flood plains are getting a good soak. I was up at Cadel 2 weeks ago, and the wildlife has taken off.
      Btw, there is a reason all the old houses in Mannum, Blanchetown, Morgan, Berri, etc, are built up on a hill.
      The rule is, if you build on a flood plain, you are gunna get flooded.

      @driftingingilliganexplorin4409  Рік тому +4

      Sad for a lot of people but agree with Nor Dic. Have talked to farmers along the river that have lost a lot of money but also said it is good for the river system.
