SHEPPARTON NEWS

Hi All,

Well where to start with the news this week.

Tone is still looking for a job and not that he is sitting back - he is - like I was on the net and phone every day - it does get frustrating but something will happen soon....

We are here till the end of June or maybe the mid of June - depending on a couple of things.

Tone went to Melbourne and picked up the new car and its a good car - he will spend a bit of time doing bits to it getting it ready for when we hitch up again later.....

I am settling into the "public service" and enjoying the people and the work.

I had my birthday last friday and have left the the fab fifty and entered the fabulous 51"s........

I tell you what- Shepparton has everything you know - they have floods - still suffering here in parts - mozzies that can carry you away - locust and crickets that stick to your car like shit to a blanket and NOW mice!!!!

And yes we have the little charmers visiting us every night and now during the day - just to see what they ay get for nothing.

Well I am going to fix them!!! I went to the supermarket on sunday and got the mice murdering equipment and I hope they enjoy their new meal.   RAT AND MICE SAK...............

OMG what else do we need to have here......

Easter is on our doorstep and its a 5 day weekend - bummer reallly as its 3 days without pay - thats the way us "Temps" see it!!

We may take some trips to Bendigo or to Beechworth for a look.  The caravan park will be full so it will be nice to get away from the tourists.

Tone has a few jobs in the pipeline with the LED lights in the vas so he may be a busy over the break too....

Oh well see you after easter

Enjoy the looooong weekend

Love and miss you

Carolyn and Tone

UPDATES FROM SHEPP................

Hiya all,

A bit chilly today and I am crook with a cold and my brain hurts - so you all laugh - yes there is a little one in there.  I have chosen to rest up today and try and kick it - which I hate doing - don't like to take days off - especially now as I don't get paid!!!!

I was pretty crook on the weekend but we still went to the the Echuca air show which was really good and we saw some amazing stunts along with old planes and vehicles.....

We have had a farewell last night around a fire at the caravan park which was great but a bit cool for us....
I was wrapped up like I was at the snow but it was an early night an into the air conditioning - Aaaaah so warm.

Tones work is really starting to slow down - all due to the floods and rain and farmers lack of being able to get to their land still as a lot of it is still under water or not ready for planting.  He may have to look for a new job to see him through till we leave Shepp.

We will be looking forward to going somewhere to thaw out!!!!!

Not much more news at the moment - just doing some washing and have to get out into the sun.

Hope everyone is healthy and happy.

Love and miss you

Caro and Tone
