Hellowww!
Short update. I've changed my job. After 3 weeks of almond pruning and suffering, I decided it was enough. So after the weekend I changed to rolling and pulling on a vineyard. But that only made about 50 dollars a day. :S So I'm back at the almond farm. This time with a chain saw. Although more dangerous, a lot easier job. And again about +100 dollars a day. :) So, I'll be doing this for 2 weeks (then the job ends). And then I'll leave Mildura as well. Enough is enough, it's time for some fun again.
Only down side, I'm already 190 dollars behind on my pay check. Everybody is behind between 30 and 300 dollars!! Hopefully we still get that money. If not, there might be a fire on the almond farm... or worse (6)...
Ow yeah, sunday we (Richard, Ish, John, Shelly and me) took my car for a ride. Was fun! Some off road, chasing kangaroos around, done some walking etc. Next week again, or maybe a wine tour.
Well, good night!!
Kisskiss

Hallo ralf,
Ik kan me de frustratie goed voorstellen. hard werken en dan niet betaald krijgen.
Maar doe geen domme dingen waar je later spijt van krijgt.
Knuffel,
