I'm still in Brisbane and starting to get a bit bored now! I managed to get back here from Sydney just fine, although the coach journey was a bit of a slog. Anyway the second bus I had to catch was cancelled as the rain has left the roads in a terrible state around central Queensland, so they're not actually allowed to drive buses down them! It's just a little bit annoying to keep having to pack up and check out of the hostel in the morning, only to be told later...

Right I am now back in Brisbane and should tell you about the rest of my week at the ranch! On thursday we started bright and early as always with fencing, which was just about as exciting as it probably sounds! We had to make gates out of barbed wire etc, so everyone ended up with scratches all over their hands and arms. It was pretty hard work really, and were standing up outside for a good 5 hours, but I suppose it is a pretty important part of farming to make...
