A career is born

Well here we are and its December already.

We've been hearing all the stuff about the snow back home and some kind of famine is already happening in the shops. Jenn says thats no biggy it sounds like the kiwi shopping experience. Kind of wish we were there and kind of glad that we are here and decided to stake an extended holiday until the new year. Although the summer is very familiar as we had heat for about a week and now its overcast and cool and looking to stay that way for the forseeable future. The wind is now thankfully down to a moderate breeze but the flies are out in force.

It was a week ago when it suddenly dawned on everybody that there was only 20 odd days until christmas and then Sean has to pack away his tools lovingly in bubble wrap and they begin their journey home. A short panic and plans were hastily drawn up for the erecting of a fence, building of pillars and fitting of front gates for Chez Davidson. It will look positively palatial and a million dollars by the time he's finished.

So this week its been all go for Monahan and Sons as Sean made use of Jacks free time to do 'fun stuff' such as go shopping at Bunnings and hire mini diggers and augers for post holes.

It turns out that Jack has a natural aptitude for the mini digger, much to Seans chagrin. Sean spending an hour or so concentrating till his eyes squinted and his brow sweated and still making half arsed wobbly scrapes. Jack jumps in and away he went in minutes. Sean tells Jack that if you can dig a hole you will never be out of work. A career is born?
