With silver bracelets on her wrist and flowers in her hair.
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
'Come in', she said, 'I'll give you shelter from the storm.'"
Just a quick one to say the job in the vineyards fell through. Instead, Mike and I have got jobs just north of Perth working on a chicken farm. Although it's not in my top 5 dream jobs, I'd be lying if I said it wasn't in my top 10. Would love to spend a little more time chilling out here but the chickens are restless.
There is one spaniard in the works though as Dingo is a bit under the weather and won't start
1 - Australia Never Saw Me Coming
. Possibly he's sulking because Aaron has left, but hopefully he'll be right as rain so we can get to this job. Please say a little prayer for him.I could possibly be out of coverage and unable to get to email much for the next month depending on the job, so that explains if I don't reply.
Not sure where Aaron is at this point. In the middle of nowhere I guess. The last night out with him was absolutely class.
Forgot to mention that Aaron is organising an art show where some amazingly painted ashtrays will be on display outside pubs around Dublin at the end of the year. Keep your eye out for them.
Also, his flight is in the next couple of weeks so just wait for a living legend to die somewhere in the world as is often the case. The last 3 times Aaron flew internationally Ray Charles, Barry White and Marlon Brando died. It's a curse.
Oh yeh, and I've met someone here and fallen in love. She's Swedish and amazing. We are trying to hook up again on the east coast, but if all else fails it's quite likely, when the traveling is over, that I'll be marrying her and settling down in Sweden.
Switcheroo, I know.
