I am making money! Like i said last time iv found a job on a farm and have been out in the fields for the past 3 days. Day 1 - Was picking sweet potatoes and then planting the vines for next years crop and i have to say it was VERY hard on the back. On the up side i met a nice Scottish guy from Edinburgh who was giving me advice about pubs in Aberdeen. Day 2 - New farm where they grow Macadamea (spelling?) nuts and this time i was on the back of a trailer handi...

On the up side the people have been great and i think Townsville is a fantastic place. Have spent t...

Have arrived in Townsville and have been here about 30 mins, so far it's great. The town isnt the nicest iv been to but you cant complain at all, the great thing about it is the people. All of them are friendly (all 4 iv met) and its looking good for the next couple of days.
