Last of four tonight, perfect day after a long wet winter, and I had to sleep through it........ So I decided to ride the bike into work.....took the long road along the fromt of mount wellington..... :8 gotta love it....... Right now, the bike's parked just outside the office window, can't help but smile every time I look at it, might give it a bit of a buff during my break. In the morning I'll follow the coast home then 4 days off..... It's just win win all round.... |

These last two nights seem to be dragging.... well the first has so far..... 4.30 am....... It's officially my Birthday and I'm feeling decidedly old.....53....They said I'd never make it....the way I used to ride, I'm surprised I did. At least tonight my shift partner is bringing cake.......His mother is a French Trained Pastry Chef.... and she promised me a Black Forest Cake.... her work is something to behold.....I have experienced it before. If any of you can make it to Hobart,trust me...... the Cake would be worth the air fare. Forgot to bring my lotto ticket to work .... 30 mil tonight.... at least the dream lives a little longer till I can check it......If you see me posting pics of an 1198, you'll know what happened...... If you're gonna dream, you might as well do it big....... |

Well, After 9 years of no night shift.
I started last night, at 9 with a temp of 39 in the shaft. I'm ripping a lift out at Central station and has to be finished by Friday morning at 1am. So hot weather can go and get fu@@@@!!!
Looks like I'll be on nights for a while, as I have three more lifts to do.
Anyway, sitting back drinking Jacks and watching the sun come up.
