Gardening Day

the weather is a bit unstable these days, so kathy woke me up this morning saying we were closed because ther was a big thunderstorm comming. It remained rather sunny down in the valley. Since all the rides were cancelled, I got to do some gardening. Tomorrow will be closed too because it is Melbourne Cup Day. Melbourne Cup is the most famous horse race in Oz, and actually a national holiday down in victoria. Everybody goes crazy about it, dresses up, goes to a party and gets drunk ;-). We are at the Blackheath Golf Club with Kathy, her family and some others working at Werriberri; Lunch starts already at 12am, so it`s gonna be a long day! SInce I am having Wed&Thur off, gardening was the only thing to do to get me at least half a day pay this week.
Anne has found a room in Sydney and I am going over to check it out - and to get out of the horse stench and into some more urban environment. yeah!
teh weekend was ok, concert fine, Rhododendron Festival stupid and too rainy, working quite busy. Photos to follow.
sorry, but I gotta run to the german class now! hope to update this post when I get back fromt eh city!
