Awesome Ep and stories guys

[@oldmate_adventures]

Cheers Craig🍻👍, much appreciated mate!

[@Thomas_M_1963]

Semi-retirement? That sounds like a cool concept. It sure is worth some thoughts for myself. Cheers

[@oldmate_adventures]

Yeah mate we are nearly into our 4th year. Easier than you'd think, just have to make a plan and knuckle down. We work when we want to not when we need to 🙌. Do it!

[@Heath7691]

Hi guys great to see you guys are doing well and thanks for sharing your experiences.My wife does those spuds they are yum and does wedges the same way.Snakes I'm not a fan I always remember having breakfast at my uncle's place at Mataranka and a king brown was looking at itself through the sliding door I shit myself looking forward to your next episode stay safe.😊

[@oldmate_adventures]

Cheers Heath 🍻! Oh nice, we'll give wedges a shot! Ha yeah the dodgy snakes I steer clear of but I love thee ole Pythons, we used to have 2 pet ones back in the day

Get a 4-6 man tent and make/hang biltong in it away from the flys. Love doing smoked meat sticks on the smoker 🤤

[@oldmate_adventures]

That would be the go hey! What's these meat sticks you talk of? 🤔 I may need to try these (very novice on the smoked meat cooking) 🍻

[@oldmate_adventures]

Cheers Andy! Yeah it's not cheap hey, I'd brew my own if I lived up here permanently. Been out camping lately mate? Good firepit weather down there eh? 🔥✊️

[@offcampnandy7727]

@@oldmate_adventures Heading away for 2 weeks mid September if I can handle my own company for that long 🤣🤣🤣

[@oldmate_adventures]

Haha bloody lovely 👌👌

[@Hebbie57]

Love this video! So many experiences you have had! Love the “stalker pig” story. So glad he didn’t get into the vegetable garden 🪴

[@oldmate_adventures]

Cheers Marr 👍👍, yeah the bloody mongrel hey. I take my vege patch very seriously! 😁🫡 ha

[@Dstick1Spearfishing]

Such a great video Jed and Kel, chilling out having a beer watching. Very Relaxing after Hockey - we are in the GF big Dance, got a week off LOL! 33:20 - I know this is way late, but FWIW The Caps look like they have a thrip or sap sucking insect hitting them. Come out at night with a torch and have a look at the new shoots, recon you might get a surprise 😉. Keep being beautiful people! Stay safe, have fun, enjoy life! 😁👍🤗❤

[@oldmate_adventures]

Cheers Dave! Oh a week off after the win or before? Good Times 🤜🤛! Yeah I go out most nights after dinner with torch and slay all the bugs, they are horrendous up here. Hopefully get a few veges through the Keeper...that's half the battle! Haha Cheers mate and good luck in the final 👍👍

[@wontstandstill1756]

This opening is awesome !!!! Getting veeeeeery creative 👌 See you next year when you head north to Hedland!

[@oldmate_adventures]

Arr cheers Paul! Yeah possibly head to Hedland 50/50 atm 🙌

[@waverminsolutions-bp2ii]

i bet that was a bit of fun on the pigs , nice video as always

[@oldmate_adventures]

Yeah mate chippin away at the bloody things. You get into any down your way? A mate at Arthur River said he gets a few these days on his farm

[@waverminsolutions-bp2ii]

@@oldmate_adventures nah mate we dont see many , mostly roo's rabbits and fox's wouldnt mind getting into some soon

[@oldmate_adventures]

Yeah someone on here recently told me they are fairly thick in the Geraldton region...maybe they are onto the top end of the wheatbelt also??

[@bryanpaynechefbrybry1067]

Thanks for the update team Jelly.. was waiting for the olive python to have a go. Glad you ate enjoying yourselves. Great to see the population of pig are smaller atm. Lol..

[@oldmate_adventures]

Haha I've never had a fired up Olive Python yet but alot of crew I hear don't like handling them because they are grumpy. Maybe one day! Ha Yeah a few less ferals running around is always a good thing hey! Cheers Mr Payne and have a great weekend 👍

[@ErikEriksen-u5k]

$90 a carton for mid strength would make brewing your own a good proposition!

[@oldmate_adventures]

Haha yeah Erik I would definitely brew my own if I lived up here permanently!

[@ErikEriksen-u5k]

@@oldmate_adventures I wonder if Camp Brewer would be an option

[@RGVJ21]

Great intro. Watched it a cpl of times. Good that your enjoying yourselves.

[@TheSmithstravels]

Hi guys gotta say your opening drone footage this episode was outstanding🙌 well done

[@oldmate_adventures]

Cheers Kel & Jim 👍🍻 Yeah we have to make more of an effort to get drone up. Some lovely country up here!

[@geoffwilson7774]

Great drone footage guys, well done. The garden may lack a bit of fertiliser? only a guess but good job getting it started. The lick blocks have trace elements and minerals which help the cattle break down and digest the dry pastures. Plenty of muddies (pigs) around up there to by the looks of it, good thing they didn’t get into the garden. You have certainly cleaned the yard up, looks great from when you arrived. Great job on the butchering to. Can’t wait to see what you guys get up to next. Safe journey 🍺🤙🏽

[@oldmate_adventures]

Hey there Geoff! Cheers 👍, Yeah mate I have since got hold of some Seasol fertiliser and also some chook poo 👍. Hopefully will help the plants out a bit!

[@scale2tail]

Love the drone footage. Fantastic 🙌🏻. We do livestock at work mate. Sheep and Angus beef. To be honest. I don't enjoy it much. Especially when you have to chase them around to get them on the truck. But they do do a great job keeping the grass down. I guess that is one of the reasons I love the water so much ahhah. Spend too much time on the land. Fantastic video. Done so well. Just those peas need to be 4ft high or more haha. They will get there. You will also have endless tomatoes soon. 👌

[@oldmate_adventures]

Haha yeah it's definitely a challenge for me not being near the ocean too! One day! Hopefully a bit more sun and water and the veges will start rolling in, as long as I can keep the pests away!! 😬🙌

[@WarrenRorison-yb5ux]

Hi guy's orsme vid ,good to see that you're still enjoying your selves, bring on the fishing trip, easy.wazza

[@oldmate_adventures]

Yeah mate it's good times up here! Other than being so far from the ocean! Ha Cheers Wazza and have a lovely weekend 👌
