We're back ... sort of!

Hi all

Well, the move to West Wyalong has been interesting so far. West Wyalong? Jodi has got a job up here on the local mine and since she felt it was time to get her boots dirty again, we thought "why not". We're currently in the company transit house waiting for our house to have new carpets laid. It's dragging on a bit as we were supposed to be in last Wednesday (our stuff is currently in a container in Wagga and I'm working on three pairs of undies...) and now it's starting to look like we won't be in till this coming Wednesday. Jodi had been hoping to be settled before starting work but it looks like I'll be doing the unpacking.

On the job front for me, I'm hoping to get back on to driving trucks on the mine or anything else I can find. Apparently, the local sampling lab is looking for people so that'll be something different.

WW is a great little town. We're a bit hamstrung exploring at the moment as we can't leave the dogs anywhere but there's plenty of road trips ahead of us. Have already caught up with Pat Morris and seen the progress he's making with his projects. Look out Dubbo Golden Oldies 2010! With Pat's permission I'll hopefully feature some of his projects on here.

My trucks are back in Melbourne with the project Bedford ML hopefully sold (but not moving for a while). I'll be on the look out for something up here but we'll see. Got a few things to sort out first and lots of gas-bagging to do with Pat.

Found an awesome Inter AA120 three-axle tipper next to the Bridgestone here in town (shop also happens to be the locksmith as we discovered yesterday after locking ourselves out). Have pics on the phone so will get those up eventually.

Today is just a test in the new house to see if the net is connected etc. I probably won't be hooked up permanently till next week.

Until then,

Andy
