⌛ Another Newbie :-)

Hi Everyone, I'm Graham.

Just stumbled on this site a short time ago and am impressed and wanted to join.

I haven't visited Dumaguete yet but have been to PI about 28 times so far.

I work for Primary Industries here in Darwin Australia assisting our Mango growers to maximise their crops, helping with market access, fruit fly control, etc.

Anyway, just wanted to say hello and Dumaguete is definately on the hit list early next year.

Hope to meet up with a few of you over plenty of beers :-)

Great Site.

 

Warm welcome Graham,

hope you can dumaguete soon, and experience first hand the infos posted here, and maybe share the technology you have with regards to mango industry, negros island as a whole got some

 

Thanks

Thanks for the welcome.

Of course I am happy to help as I already help a foundation in Luzon with info as they employ quite a lot of local people in the Mango Industry there and Cebu.

I am not an expert but I have access to a lot of useful info that can help Primary Producers. I hope anyway :-)

Cheers
Graham

 

Got a couple dozen of Carnarvon's finest on the kitchen benchtop as I write. Wife did a raid on the veggie market this morning....cheap...and sooo good..

Welcome Graham. Haven't been to Darwin but some friends just got back from a visit and loved it..

 

Mate, its stinking hot at the moment, next week the monsoons will be here, arrgh :-)

Crayfish? Or Oysters? sorry for my ignorance, I've never been to Carnarvon, my Dad lives in Mandura though :-)

Cheers
Graham

 

LOL...nearly all the crays go to Honkers and Japan...we buy a few about once a year..prices are ridiculous lately..even worse this year..Will just get some big prawns and pretend....and I believe it's Turkey for Christmas...

 

Same with our Prawns here but I will lash out and buy a few leader prawns at 25 dollars a kilo if I'm lucky :-))

 

Welcome to the forum Graham, all this talk about seafood and mangoes is giving me the munchies :D

 

Ha, me also, our Mango season just finished here, my daughter and I gorged ourselves :-)

You know what I miss? The green mango in the PI with Bagoong, nice with a beer :-)

Thanks for the welcome mate.

 

Graham...we actually live north end of Perth. The mangoes are trucked in from Carnarvon. Living in Carnarvon would be nice....good fishing and nice rural beauty...But Negros would be hard to beat too..
