Job

Well I got my job. Or more importantly improved the contract I was on for the job I currently have.
So now I get a little more money but more importantly get four glorious weeks of paid holidays and also get paid for public holidays so no more needing to work a days worth of overtime to avoid getting shafted a days pay for the privilege of being on holiday.

Texting

I forgot to mention that my phone has not been working properly for probably about a year but I've only recently became aware of the fact. So if you sent me a text message from overseas and wondered why I didn't reply it was because my phone for some reason won't send messages to overseas numbers.

Snakes, birds, fishes, lizards and turtles.

A good solid weekend for reptile and bird spotting but the fish were pretty poor.
On Saturday morning prior to going to beer tasting some snorkelling at a beach near the airport that was infested with naked people trying to catch melanoma in strange places. Some all right fish and a lot of jellyfish but nothing to great.
Luckily though there was a little snake on the walk down to the beach.
Sunday was considerably hotter and out west where the bird watching was it was rather unpleasant. Still managed to get four new birds and Iain got one even better though was the five snakes hundreds of water dragons and about four turtles that we managed to see at bushels lagoon. Some of the snakes were rather close including a reasonable sized brown one I nearly tread on when trying to climb over a fence.

Slackness

About time I made a post.
Haven't been doing a lot especially on the correction front, but I think I'll fix that today.
Did go snorkelling over the last few weekends and got to see some port jackson sharks before they move out of the bays, which was good.
Went for a walk to look at some aboriginal rock paintings a few weeks back, there are some photos below.
