Woode - YOUR OUT OF LINE
Having read Mr Goode's last message i must say i am OUTRAGED at how he has spoken about P-J, there is no truth in the fact that the women he goes after require a pulse!!!
But seriously he has very good taste in women (or they choose him according to someone), and i would screen them anyway! unless he got really desperate

Top Up The Alcohol
Since arriving in Rockingham god knows how many weeks ago we've had a severe lack of alcohol, this of cause was rectified over the weekend. Friday night, the end of the working week so what better way to spend it than playing drinking games with the Canadian lasses from work and their German friend (I'd advise no one to atempt out drinking a German you will come off worse). All in all it was a good night, i would go in to details but its the same as usual P-J trying his luck with anything with a pulse and Danny skinny-dipping.
Now then Saturday night was weird but in a beautiful kind of way, it all started with a trip down to the local resturant. Well it would have been a trip if we had actually made it out of the Caravan Park, P-J an Danny were in their words mauled by hot lasses and dragged into the cabin they were staying in, me and Dave being oh so galiant and brave went in after them. This seemed like a good idea at the time but when there are 8 or 9 hot (drunk) lasses stuck in one small cabin it makes you wish you were deaf, the high pitched squeals are enough to make any sane man reach for the shotgun. Thankfully we solidered on like the Britishish are meant to do and competed in some friendly drinking games, of cause this turned up the volume even more and within an hour we where making our way to the local pub after being kicked out. To cut a long story short it ended up with more drinking, random acts of lunacy, little more drinking then sleep.
Sunday was the Red Bull Air Race up in Perth so we got up nice and early and drove for 3 1/2 hours just to watch the race for about 15mins, looks good on the T.V. Adverts but it gets very repetative quickly, so we ended up eating a KFC and playing some snooker before heading back. Now then how was your lots weekend?
Speak to you in a few months time when i blog again, Mr Woode
1 week down....
So we have completed our first full week at work. I found it great to get back to doing something each day and the work itself is enjoyable. You'll all be glad to hear tho that it rained a 1/3 of the time during the end of the week, and for those of you who do i say "HA at least its Oz rain" as it was still warm and if you looked close enough you would see some "POM's" skipping and singing most the time the rain fell.
Well its the weekend now and i think we have plans to goto a wine festival later this afternoon and maybe drive to Perth tomorrow for the Red Bull Air Race, so i best be going

Work Glorious Work
Hey There,
Its me the annoying one, as im sure you know we all started work in vineyards all across Margaret River. After years of searching for that complete no brainer job i've found it the hardest task so far is being able to count to 4 and to understand that "the top wire goes on the top clip" so now ive found the no brainer job i can live happily but after 30 mins i'm fed up and for the first time regret not paying any attention or doing any homework in my school days. "Give me a suit and a desk job" who thought they'd ever hear me say that???
Its not all doom and gloom though its only for 1 and a bit months and we get to go swimming in the lake on our lunch break, what do you do on your lunch?
Anyway my brain hurts from the early mornings, hayfever and strenious work out it recieves everytime i count to 4 so i leave you with a rather crappy blog about my first 3 days back in the hell hole that is work
Love you all equally (exept the ugly people)

Yocals don't have interent...
So sorry we haven't been keeping you all up to date, seems to be not as many internet cafe's outside of Sydney. So i'll "summarize" the last 13 days or so...
Perth - Lincoln without the chavs
I personally like Perth, it was quiet, pretty and very walkable, it was a shame that everything shuts to early.
Our first two days saw us look around the city, mainly we found a shopping district with a few pubs. There was, however, the largest musical instrument in the world! oh yes. Basically a small glass church type building with church bells in. We also went and looked at Perths cricket ground, nice enough - we've been told its going to be a fast wicket, so look forward to Harmison hitting some Aussie round the chops. During the first few days of the stay the telstra Rally was on - we didn't actually go watch but we did see the rally cars racing through the streets on their way to be tuned up.
monday saw us go car shopping or more van shopping. Using the free buses we went to Northbridge to look at a place well known for campervans, they were useless! but on the way back we spotted a Wicked campers. They provide campervans for rent around Australia and all are painted in wacky designs (check there website). We went in in with the notion of asking for a good place to buy from, luckily for us they were selling off there older fleet as they updated it with newer vans. So we had a look at said van, it was nice - a 1991 Ford Econovan if your interested - Lots of mileage but they had that day fitted a reconditioned engine. Paint work was all Aboriginal. P-J and Prof. James took her for a spin and we left for a pint before deciding our next step. By 1pm the next day - would of been earlier but our hostel room had no windows so we slept longer - we had purchased Holly, and the kind lady selling her threw in loads of camping things, but we went searching for more anyway. Afterwhich we drove back to the hostel (James was driving and managed to get pulled over for not indicating while changing lanes at 17kmph over the speed limit - slap on the wrist was all he got). At the hostel we asked there help to find parking, now to say they were usless at this would be very kind of me. So we just drove to a carpark and tried to figuire it out ourselves, even asked the man installing the new parking machines to help and he wasn't exactly sure himself but we got it sorted eventually. Parking in Perth is pretty much free after 530, and as it was only 430 we banged our heads together and shouted ROAD TRIP. So jumping in th van we headed for a national park - it was kind of dull, promised kangaroos but failed to deliver. We did however take some raunchy photo's of Holly which we will, no doubt, post on here one day soon.
The following day - number 5 or wednesday - we left the van alone, moving it only for parking. we went to the cinema instead to see 'Children of Men' - wasn't bad, made you think - i thought mainly on how the best way to open the sweets quietly but the others were thinking completly different things i'm sure. That evening we went to Black Bettys (except P-J who in an effort to challange Danny lost his wallet for the second time in two days running - it has failed to return). Black Bettys was a good club who hired a midget to carry large or heavy things around all night (probly not intensionly), they had pink pool tables with pink neon lights in the cushions - looked awesome but made playing pool rather hard. So, foolishly, we decided to enter a pool compeition. Danny and I bailed out in round 1 but Mr. Goode made it all the way to the final where amoungst the sweet smell of success he fucked it all up, making him a bigger loser than us two. Turns out Danny was rather happy to have been knocked out as it meant he could be involved in the mass brawl on the dance floor!!
It was a rather strange moment as we watched two guys play pool when suddenly Danny said "WOW look at that" and runs off into the crowd leaving me on my own as Woode was out side cooling down before the final. Wasn't long before i was talking to the lead singer of 'Smocking Section' after he declared his love for my T-Shirt (paper vs scissors). his band play at the club weekly and were very good at perfoming covers, and the songs i didn't recognise and presumed were theirs also rocked. After 10 mins he left to get ready to perform again, which is when Danny returned looking like he had just won the lottery. "I just threw someone out" he bursted out - apparently all but the scrawniest bouncer was outside when the fire they were dealing with reignited, Danny being on the spot offered his assistance, and with an apreciative nod from the bouncer, Danny dove straight in and grabbed a guy dragging him to the exit - for a more glorified account just ask Danny his version! (btw the arse that started the fight - against 3 others - ended up in hospital after splitting his head open outside, for a more Gored up version ask Woode). With the night seemingly at its climax we returned home at 4 to tell P-J what he had missed.
The next day started early for P-J and I as the van needed moving before 8am. In a relaxed day (due to last night) we did a bit of shopping and went to kings park to play a little football. For our last day in Perth we went for a quick shop, purchasing a now priceless DVD player, after which we hit the road and drove to Rockingham - nice enough town which they called a city???
to be continued...
the City of Rockingham
In Rockingham we found a place to camp for the weeknd with the intent to chill and finally throw another shrimp on the Barbie!! Which, hard to believe, we managed. On the sunday tho we went to Penguin Island, we expected great things. We arrived at the ferry departure point only to notice 'those people are walking to the island...IN THE SEA' so we followed suit (as walkings free). After 20 mins walking across the sand bank and keeping our belongings nice and dry, we're just two strides from the beach when plop! P-J's phone goes for a swim, only in there for a second or two as i managed to grab it sharply, but it was a second too long (placing P-J and Danny very close in the Stupidity rankings).
Penguin Island isn't overly large and is mainly a bird sanctuary in the middle so we decided to walk the perimiter of the island. This was not easy, FACT: rock climbing in flip-flops in not easy! but that of course didn't manage to stop us - on our way around we saw Pelicans, Pigeons, Crested Terns, some birds that we hadn't a clue what they were, colourful crabs and shit loads os Silver Gulls, which attacked us on many occasions. So we had a pleasant couple of hours on Penguin Island, however if you want to see an actual Penguin on PENGUIN Island you have to pay as the local research boffins had rounded all the little beggars up and put them inside a shed!!
Monday morning we packed up camp and headed back to Perth, we made it halfway before Holly overheated - an hour to cool down and we continued. In Perth we got in contact with a man named Mick and arranged for work, YES work! Pleased with ourselves we drove back to Rockingham, Holly almost made it there but again she overheated, a problem we thought. Luckily P-J had spotted a mechanics on our last visit here and we headed there. Unfortunatly they couldn't look at her until the next morning so back to Rockingham Holiday Villgae we went. that evening we allowed ourselves to purchase a Dominoes, i know not really exciting but i wished to comment on the size of a large pizza over here... It SUCKS, barely even a medium. Anyway Holly ended up needing this and that doing so we booked another night camping and went shopping for some meat to chuck on the BBQ. The very next day and we find out Holly still won't be ready before the garage shuts and we get to wait longer, so we had the chore of doing nothing again. Woode and I thought that a bit too boring and so we went on a quest for the internet. No luck, there aint any out here. Pubs however are so we went to have a drink and a game of pool. This turned into 5 games of pool, either because we wanted to have best of 5 games (3-2 to myself, just too good) OR, and we'll let you decide, it was because shortly into our first game a very attractive blonde girl walks into the bar, disappears for 5 minutes :( but reapears beind the bar wearing only her Underwear! Now in my opinion she was fake - her hair, tand and boobs - and while i tried to work out if the latter were her's or not my pool suffered and Woode managed to win 2 games due to my lack of concentration (on the game at least).
Today we get Holly back and head to Margaret River to start work - Might let ya all know how that goes

Goodnight Sydney...
it is time to say farewell to sydney as the four of us are hopping on a plane (but not jumping out hopefully) to perth for the forseable future. its been a good month here we done the whole touristy thing visisting places like sydney opera house, the aquarium + wildlife centre, tarongo zoo, bondi beach, watsons bay (did that today to kill some time) and a few other places! we have also made lots of friends in our time here - first and formost there is Canadian Dave, who we shared a room with on bondi, this guy is a alegend and his website is pure genius!! we said 'cya l8r' to him last night on a 'last night booze up' which was totally awesome!! then there are the Liberty Lunch Guys n Gals, after speding most of our time within the restaurant while staying at bondi we soon became the regulars and knew them all, even the manager was giving us free food (as he should after spending $400 in one night!! which reminds me to say hello to jess the english girl we met, you cost us alot of money!!! but it was all cool) we will miss the liberty bunch as they were, and still are, a great bunch of people - just ask david ;) next up is a girl we met at at place called 'purple sneakers' - which is an awesome night out - her name is stacey and she invited us to go to a place called 'the shires' (which wasnt the rolling hills with tiny people that had hairy toes that i expected lol) where she lived to see the night life, i met a tonne of her friends so a big wasssup to you girls!!! and of cors there was lucas the 'womanising machine' that snored like 'a bear with a megphone' that kept us up most nights!! i will miss sydney as it the only place i kno that i have friends in within aussie but im sure i can make loads of new ones elsewhere - possibly befriend a pack of dingos and see how that plays out!!!
