Slave Labour OVER!!!!! :)

Well I finally finished my time in the Tomato industry, thank god :) Im gonna spend 2 more weeks in Murchison, just to wait for my friends to finish, they are stayin on for a couple of more weeks until the shed closes, I really cudnt take anymore, plus the hours have really cut down, we were mainly working 7 til 3 everyday. On the 8th we are all goin on the "road trip" towards Perth, im most probably not going to go the whole way as i want to stop i port lincon to do a spot of tuna fishin, but it'll be a good drive, we will go along the great ocean road and all along the south coast.

Currently im livin in Murch with couple that live in the town, Wayne and Kath Lacy, I was put on to them through a guy at work who is cuirrently lodging with them Jesse, so I pay 100 bucks a weeks, and they let me use the house as my own, i get all my meals cooked for me,can use the tv and dvd as much as i like, its really good :)

Wayne is a horse breaker, which cant really be put any plainer, he breaks horses in for people to ride, so i try and help out were i can. They have invited to go on holiday with them to a place called Bamar, every year they have a muster or cattle round up, up there over the 300,000 odd acres and they have lots of other stuff going, on but im gonna go and give it a go, maybe not rounding up cattle, but will definatly go on a couple of rides up there.

ummm thats about it, Ill put some meat on these bones when im havin a warmer day :)

Im gonna go try an set up Wayne and Kathy's internet internet connection for them. Oh and Ive aqquired a 2HP 240 Volt 850 generator from Wayne, im going to plaster up a door way for him, and he's given me this as payment, its wicked, got power everywere i go now :)

speak soon all of you, thanks for readin :)

Australian Grand Prix: Melbourne

Rite these are just gonna be quickies so you know what im up to, but im just not feelin my usual writting self, well its more because its abit chillin outside and my hands havnt warmed up yet so the typing is frustratingly slow hahaha plus my ipod widgetkanofilator that i store my pics on is flat as a pancake cus i bin listenin to music allday.

Rite back to grand prix. Finished work on half day on 1st of April flew down to Melbourne, met up with Petra (Toms missus from Vraca, he was at work) chilled out for abit, then we went to meet Tom and the German girls Sarah and Sarah also from Vraca (oh if i hadnt mentioned vrace is the tomato shed) I brought my ticket for the Grand Prix, then we all went out in St.Kilda and it was freezin, well maybe not quite freezing but it was cold, partied pretty hard that night and ended up spewing a few times....all in a gud nite out i say :)

Next day 2nd April I cruised on down to the Albert Park and went into the Grand Prix, entered the ground on completely the wrong side to were Tom was workin so missioned over to say hello, he gave my a program and some tips on were gud to sit. I went and got me a place on this grass bank on a good corner and proceeded to wait watchin all the stuff they have on b4 the race and my god did i have a hang over or what, no good watchin cars zoom past just makes u feel it, plus i had no thick coat so i was abit cold, but nevertheless it wore off by the time the race kicked off and i was ok, but my god its defening, had my ear plugs in and it was still loud!! I saw a couple of smashes which was prety cool, but the dam batteries on my camera gave up the ghost about 8 laps in, but u live and learn!

That night me and the 2 sarahs went to the crown casino and me and Sarah (ingoshmingo you know who u are) played on the slot machines, i ended up 15 bucks up by the end, then we all went to the cinema and saw V for vendeta...pretty pants but worth a watch i suppose, then headed bk to were the girls were stayin and watched a film called DogVille....ShitVille more like, i watched 2 minutes of this crap and cudnt watch anymore, Sarah R loved it, its a drama artsy type of film, not really my cuppa mughole :)

Spent the next day potterin round this part of melbourne i cant remember the name of, but went to a few coffee shops and stuff, just chilled out, had tea in the city in a little greek side ally joint, then drove back to Murchison.
