5am Start

Living in the country and not having my car on the road is proving very awkward at times, I have been trying to find a bit of cash in hand work in the local area. A bloke we kinda know gave me a days work yesterday, out in the field, picking courgettes, man, what a job that was.

Imagine the biggest field ever, full of courgettes, i’m talking acres and acres. I spent 7 hours, walking through the plants bending down, cutting them off the plants, putting them to one side, standing back up, moving to the next, and bending back down again. It must have been the longest day of my life, minutes felt like hours, and hours felt like days.

The morning start was fine, it was nice and cool, and I was totally refreshed. As the day went on the legs and back started to ache, the sun came out, it got hotter and hotter, and became unbearable. One thing I have noticed about this place, is when its hot, it becomes very humid, and makes your head feel like its being squeezed between a vice.

After handing what must have been a thousand of these damn things, I finished at 2pm and went straight home, jumped in the bath, checked my emails and went shopping.

After trailing round he local Tesco’s and spotting more mis-modified cars (i.e, something you would see on Barryboys.co.uk), I went back home, unpacked it all, and got stuck into a hot chicken and salad dinner.

Been talking to Olly & Scott aswell today, who have kindly sorted out my car battery for me, collected it from my old house and taken it to my Mums to get charged, as I should be collecting the Polo this week and taking it to the bodyshop, what a nightmare that has been. I’m awaiting a call from the trailer guy to say we can come and get it, its one from the local RAF base that I’ve managed to get the use of.

The rest of the day was spent sorting out the body and tuning website and throwing random rhymes over MSN between me & Binnsey, LOL, however there’s still more to do and I STILL need to finish the site for my friends Construction company. I could do with more content actually, its a bit bare.

Nothing more to blog about really, i’m well tired,but thats nothing new, nite folks.
