CAN SOME ONE COME AND GET US!!!!!

It was up hill and down dale and round lots of bendy bits to get from Sale to Heaseville - which is down the hill from Toolangi where we went to work on the Witlof farm....
We are staying in Heaseville Tourist Park, which is in the Yarra Valley - sorta like the Hunter Valley but much prettier.  There is a lot to see around here and its very quaint and only one hour south to the big smoke of Melbourne - It is very HOT here but a bit cooler up the hill at toolangi.

Its funny you know after we moved from c4 site to c1 site we did some touring the area, but did some looking for other jobs - just in case.

THE WEEDERS AT END OF ROW TWO....

LOOK HOW LONG THE ROWS ARE!!!!!!

AFTER 4 ROWS - DELIRIOUS!!!!!

I AM NOT MOVING ALRIGHT!!!!!!
We had a trip out to Badger Creek Weir - very pretty!!!!
We were up at 6am this morning -friday 21st  to start our new job - with the Cambodians - we were going to show them how it was done!!!!
OMG - we did 4 rows which took us about an hour each row with one of us on each side of the row which had three rows of plants in it!

We were shattered - I would use stronger language but it may get censored our backs and knees were numb and we have blisters on our thumbs from the knife we used to weed with.

Told ED it was too hard - see ya later - he was not worried but will talk to his brother George and we may get something less physical to do like digging trenches lol lol  lol.....

Oh and the funny thing that made my day was that Ed thought we had done a great job getting the rows done in a good time considering we were "60"...........LOL LOL LOL - he then tried to make amends by saying that I was maybe mid 40s.  He said that Tone looked 40 when he arrived!!!!!!

Oh I can't stop laughing at that one - thats for sure......

We had spared no expense in buying shirts from lifeline to wear to our new job and they have gone straight in the bin when we got back to the van park.  We were covered in dirt from head to toe - we had dirt on our feet which had gone through our shoes and socks - grubs -  we had a bit of lunch and lay down just jfor a wee rest - and woke up 2 hours later - not able to move from the bed - it has taken us 1/2 and hour to loosen up the bones....

God it sound like we are wingers but I can't believe we did that big walk up that bloody mountain and yet can't pull a few weeds - I think we need to HTFU!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy our new pics.....
