I guess the problems are when it's cold.
Try leaving a slight pause when going from 1st (or third) in neutral before putting it in 2nd, then doing it slowly and purposefully. Gently gently catchee monkey!

It will be an LT77 and eirther the syncro is going on the gearbox or the clutych isn't engaging properly - you could try checking all the levels for starters, this might help a bit, but most likely is the syncro - just take it easy and change into gear a bit more slowly - don't fling it in, just do it slowly and firmly.

thats an LT77 then - reverse prob is a spring and ball - easy fix....
crunchy box - they all tend to do that - as said - live with it or get an exchange gear box.

Sounds like the gearbox is a bit tired. Just take it a bit easy with it and it will get you a few more tens of thousands of miles, but look after it!
Like i said, check all fluid levels, especially the clutch!
