Hey everyone,
sorry we havent done a post in an eternity. I must admit there hasn't been all that much to be blogging about here apart from the incessent rain. I found out today from the greyhound office that unless there is a period of dry weather (it's forecast to continue raining like it has been until mid february) then the road we need to townsville will remain impassable as it has been for over a week) so we need to find an alternative - either fly out or head sraight down to Brisbane (the likeliest one).
Since Christmas we've managed to find a couple of jobs which has been great. We've been working down at 'The Rish' (The Irsh Club) on Friday and Saturday nights (10pm-4am) which has been good. Australians like they're drink though and seem to trun into a pack of wild anaimals once they've had a few so it can get pretty 'interesting' down there sometimes. Having someone threaten to come over the bar and ''smack your face in'' isn't all that uncommon. That said, they're yet to actually try it yet...!
We've also been working at the Overlander (a bar up the road) in the week as well so we've been doing around 40 plus hours a week recently so the money should be rolling in!
My birthday was good to. Went out for a few drinks with Emily, a candaian guy called steve and a couple of local girls who happened to be drinking up at the Overlander in the daytime! Not an average birthday but a surpisingly good one!
Apart from that there isnt much else to say so we shall try to post again soon when there's a bit more news!
Bye for now!
