Back to work on Tuesday. Had a good week doing all sorts of various jobs around the farm. We start at 7am, the boss tells us what he wants us to do and then we're left to it until he calls us in when it's time to finish. We can take our 'smoko' (15minute break) and lunch break when we like so it's good not having someone on your back whilst doing the job.
The boss let me loose on one of the tractors for the first time on Saturday aswell!! Was great fun - I loved it!! (Check out my blog picture)

The three Irish girls left the farm on Wednesday which was sad.. I'd had a good laugh with them since I arrived. Left on the farm now other than myself are the two Estonians, a Dane, a Chilean and a South African. Turns out the guy who I thought was the other Englishman was born and bred in South Africa and has only lived in England for three years.. so looks like I'm flying the flag for us all on Barbera Farm.

With work being more or less guaranteed till the end of May I decided to join the local gym for my last month here.. it's pretty basic but has enough equipment to keep me going. Went for my first gym sessions on Thursday and Friday evening.. my first since coming away. Felt good to get back in the groove of things and my fitness hasn't deteriorated as much as I thought it had.

It was the Royal wedding of Prince William and Catherine on Friday. It has been all over Australian television for the past two weeks and the majority of the hostel were glued to it but I chose to watch a film in the room instead.

Headed into town after work on Saturday afternoon on the lookout for a new pair of cheap shoes for work.. my last pair have been ready to fall apart for the last couple of weeks. Ended up buying some snazzy velcro trainers from Target for $20.. haha, haven't owned a pair since I was at primary school! Came away with five Easter eggs too.. on offer for 86c each - what a bargain!! Thinking of going back again tomorrow and stocking up ;)

Had a quiet one on Saturday night.. couldn't be bothered wasting my money in Central again. Made a curry for my tea then watched a film whilst tucking into two of my Easter eggs.. felt a little sick afterwards!

It's been a nice sunny morning here so far.. just down at Cosmo's having breakfast and using the internet. Will go for a run later this afternoon and then relax for the rest of the day.

Work and the gym will be my priorities from here on in.

Four weeks to go!! :)
