Calabi-Yau the changing of states

Hello, 

So here we are, working too much. Unable to get any tripping in with me working 72hr weeks on nightshift, has been trying. Almost falling asleep driving the truck at about 3am seems to be a common occurrence, but so far I have had no damage although the other day I managed to drive into one of the sheds..... classic not sure what I was thinking (I left the hoist in the up position...... gutted)

Just a small dent or "dint" as they all seem to say over here, bloody Australians!
I managed to open up some cracked welds on the top ram box but we sorted it.


Well I left the 60 series slip by, not sure if it was a good decision but it had done - 500,000km on the clock scared us a bit. So now I'm still looking for a decent 4x4, we are currently looking at a land rover defender.... What do you think? as you can see i'm really not too fussy about the type, I just want a strong reliable vehicle that can handle traveling around. So if anyone has any suggestions or advice it would be much appreciated. I mean I would love a Toyota troopy 4 door  but have you seen the price.... its insane
 ok here she is....land rover defender 1993

oh but just found a troopy bit high in price but looks good

Its a cool looking car aye.

Well the other news is that I have a new job, working as a Land management officer for a fixed term in a place called Miles (about 3 hrs inland from Brisbane and 6hrs south of Emerald) I start on the 16th of July. So I finish work at the cotton gin hopefully on friday or thursday.
So this is not a bad situation although Shahn is still doing locum work in Rockhampton and unsure as to how long she will have work or accommodation.

Oh yea man how cool is it that they discovered the Higgs boson... I thought I would just add this video Large Hadron collider

So hopefully we can organise a 4x4, get a place, Shahn find work and finally get to do some fun tiki touring around.


As always... Watch this space!
