Bunyips, Bogans and Brown Dogs by Paul Abbott | PBThis bloke has stolen my life. I wish I had written it. A very funny book. I believe almost every word of it. ~ Charles Wooley Have you ever spent a night on an old wooden yacht on its side on a mud bank? Been bitten by a tiger snake and survived? Hugged an albatross? Been nearly drowned by a platypus? Operated a remote lighthouse? Been pestered by a pelican? Had a very close encounter with a humpback whale? Paul Abbott has all these and more.

Have you ever spent a night on an old wooden yacht on its side on a mud bank? Been bitten by a tiger snake and survived? Hugged an albatross? Been nearly drowned by a platypus? Operated a remote lighthouse? Been pestered by a pelican? Had a very close encounter with a humpback whale? 

Paul Abbott has - all these and more. 

Bunyips, Bogans and Brown Dogs is a collection of tales from his experiences – some mundane, most quite unlikely – accumulated over more than 40 years of fishing, boating and almost drowning near, on, and sometimes reluctantly in, Tasmania’s waterways.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Paul Abbott was born in England, and migrated to Australia with his family at the age of nine, enduring six long weeks of debilitating sea-sickness in the process. Since arriving he has lived in Tasmania, with brief forays interstate and overseas. Paul obtained a BA in languages from the University of Tasmania in 1972 and has since enjoyed several careers (teaching English and modern languages, PR for the Education Department of Tasmania, and in a variety of both front-line and managerial positions in youth support work, employment services and vocational education.  He is now notionally “retired”, although home food gardening as well as fishing, boating, writing, cooking and occasional consultancy work keep him constantly busy. This is his first full-length work to be published, but won’t be the last!

Great quality, no holes or fading!
Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted
I purchased these socks a couple years ago and love them so much that I just recently purchased them again! They fit perfectly, don't make my feet sweaty, and hit the ankle at the right spot. The material is so good that over years they have not faded and even though I wear the same few pairs every day, they have no signs of thinning or holes! These are the ONLY socks that I buy. I have the black ones as well as the multi-colored ones. I will never buy another brand or style again!

Well made and perform well, a little constricting
Size: Medium, Color: Black Assortment (6-pairs)
These socks definitely keep most of the moisture away from my feet, even in wet conditions, which is why I bought them. I am diabetic, though, and the recommendation is to wear socks that don't constrict at any point. These have a tight band around the opening that while it is not uncomfortable on, leaves a mark when I take them off. So far it's been ok, but if you have any kind of swelling in your feet or ankles these would probably not be the best. My foot measures size 8 and I wear size 9 Brooks running shoes. The socks fit me just right but based on the size of the opening and the overall length, I wouldn't think they would fit anyone more than a size larger. Overall well made and perform well as you would expect from this brand.
