Saturday 14th February

Today reminds me of the great British summer - grey, windy and wet - ah the memoirs of festivals gone by (mostly last summer) come flooding back but no something is different here, ah yes we are all toasty and warm snuggled up in bed (Bel is snoring to my side) in our little cosy Jym.

Since arriving at Stanthorpe 3 days ago and whilst still with out work (more on that later) we have been re-organising and pimping Jym to make it more homely. we had a fail with the car stereo that we ship from the Uk as we forgot to get the security code before we left so we finally bit the bullet and forked out for a new one which I installed last week prior to leaving Brisbane.
I seemed to have turned into the handyman of the house(van)hold after adding a few extra shelves and a cubby hole for the imac and installing stereo and new speakers which is all well and good except when Bel starts her sentence with "could we just....."

So far no work but hopefully next week we should have some apple picking as we have talked to some fellow pickers in the pub yesterday (we went to network and not for a pint honestly....I know you don't believe me...I wouldn't) and there is the work around we just need to badger the agency constantly and go around the farms as people are always coming and going
