Actually did a few hours work on the Tahj Ma Pussy today, untill the rain started . Got all the frame up, now just trying to figure out how to get the mesh & shade cloth up on my own.
And if my ears & eyes dont decieve me the Constabulary are back on their biyearly hunt for the DEMON WEED. Been hearing helicopters all day over the back of Mt Nardi & spotter planes buzzing high overhead.
Just for once i would like to see a pollice chopper spear into the ground ,mushing all onboard. Maybe then they will change their tack & use those resources & hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars for something that is more benificial to the whole community, like catching real criminals.
On a lighter note Liam & Tanner are coming over this evening, so its all systems go for some frisbee,playstation, computer games & toys. Usually in that order.
So i might just have a strong cup of tea & a good lie down before the action starts.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

Ohhh no rain
Hoo Hoo its stopped at last & the grass has grown so long the dog dissapears when he goes out the back.
Not much to write about at the moment. i managed stave off cabin fever & now its back to work. Its guuna be wonderful when this job is finished.
Got my new videocamera sorted. Outside in the light its a ripper, but unfortunately its shortcomings are only too evident in low light situations.The 2mp camera is rubbish & the video is as well. the upside is the controls are very ergononic & simple as. It took me a while but i got my camera glasses happening as soon as i learnt to click slower lol
Well thats it im blank !

Warm & moist
Now where was i ??? oh yeh. Its still raining & my $130.00pw scaffold makes a lovely waterfall. Managed to do a couple of hours on Friday, untill the liquid sunshine fell about my ears again. After last weeks shocking adventure i decided to up stumps as soon as the sun went. Which turned out to be fortuious, cos it pissed down as soon as i got in the car.
Saturday's fancy dress party was a hoot. When we arrived i had to carry a big box with lights/cables & a fog machine down a really steep winding driveway. Jeez for a moment i thought i would not be able to stop till i hit the pool .
Im glad i didnt take my guitar because the three piece band ( big Music i think ) were bloody awesome. They did one of the best renditions of The Letter that i have heard in years. there was also a couple of performers. One did a ball balacing act plus fire twirling. It was quite mesmorising. Another guy did a tap/ trumpet old classic I got Rythm I got Music, which was great..
The party girl Lizzie & two of her girlfriends did a couple of numbers complete with big hair & costumes, which sent the crowd yahooing & hollerin.
I have to say some of the costumes were great & people were really getting into it (myself included).
Gawd the sixties were a good time, i personally tried to recreate the free love aspect.......... to no avail damnitall.
Got pulled over by the booze bus on the way home, a very close call for Shabayah lol, i think the copper looked at the four ageing hippies in the car & thought bugger it way too much paperwork so at least we made it home safe.
Jeez even made a profit on the evening. I took my usual bottle of JD, but decided to start with little glasses of champers that were being handed around & stuck with it, then one of the passengers in the car decided she should put $10.00 for petrol. So a full bottle of JD , ten bucks & one joint left at the end of the night is all good.
unfortunately i didnt take any pictures I just videotaped. So yous will have to wait for some images.
