Hi
I have to work 1 in 3, I have this year off with 3 weeks holiday. We were going to stay in a lodge in Thredbo for a week but my son dislocated his
knee at Scouts, so were going to hang around home, do some house projects when the missus is around and work on my bug whenever I can.
Might even do some tourist things around Sydney, visit museums, catch explorer buses etc.
Steve

Being the owner/operator of a towing comany, I am on call 24/7-365..
The Christmas and New Years period is always a busy one, unfortunatley due to those people that decide to work on their liver failure, then try to
drive home...
I have been called out the last 2 christmas days to collect cars, so I expect this next one will be the same...
:puke
I hate to admit it, but man, I think you're right....

we have lots of hungry pets to feed and take care of as their families have left them to our care..
nothing like being licked to death by many doggies on one day all wanting the same thing..
food and attention..
it will last about 2 weeks.. HOORAY!
then a holiday is on the cards..
enjoy xmas and new years everyone..
cheers paul

getting licked by doggies all day sounds much better than cutting up bits of people after emergency bowel resections.
working pathology tuesday morning, a photography commission tuesday afternoon, and pathology again on new years eve...
and once again... australia day is me and only me at work... last year it was EXTREMELY profitable.
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

I'm working tonight and tomorrow morning. In fact tomorrow I finish up working with my current boss tomorrow. That said, being a student minister
means work tonight is a Christmas Puppet Show along with playing some bass guitar, tomorrow is similar only I'm Leading one of the services and
playing drums ( )... or it could be bass again. I enjoy church
heaps anyway and it's all over by 10:30 in the morning. Not really hard work.
Then we are off to my parents for several hours of non-airconditioned fun....Well at least they have a pool. Unfortunately, my Missus is up the duff
with our second one, and between that and with her being a pom, it's always too hot.
Oh well, I'll be making the best of it anyway.
