Cold/Hot/Bushfires

Hello there,

I realise it's been a while since my last post so i've done 3 at once! We're sill in Great Western working away keeping our heads down. We had some really weird weather lately about 3 weeks ago it got as low as 9 degrees C in the day, this is summer in australia! then the week after it got up to 40 which started off bushfires then we got electrical storms, all good fun though. It's hot all the time now the last couple of days have been up to 40 and with the hot northerly wind its like standing next to a hairdryer when you go outside!

Theres not much else to report we're just working oh yeah we went to safewys the other day to get some messages and there was this youg lad here, who looked like he was a couple cans short of a sixpack with his trousers up to his armpits and what dave described as 21" waist, so he walked out of the shop and proclaimed "God bless beethoven if here were today he'd say whoosh!" i don't know who was taking to probably a parked car by the looks of him but it was the funniest thing i've seen in a while.

Anyway thats about it hope everything is good back home, leave a comment or send me an e-mail and i'll get back to you

Cheers

Col Boy

Hair today.....

So I finally managed to upload the photos of me & my hair pre & post op! I wish I'd taken my camera with me to the haidressers in melbourne because when it was all brushed out it was a sight to behold! And one of the girls who worked in the hardressers worked with me in TK Maxx, small world.

Anyway take a look
