So Myswag'rs, I've got good news and bad news
« on: May 23, 2014, 08:44:29 AM »
Seems I have 4 weeks of work left before I embark on a new adventure.
(4week notice period where I can't really do much anyway)

What to do with my time in the next 4 weeks?

No sunshine in Vic, although we do have the June Long Weekend Myswag weekend, so looking forward to that.

Firewood collection with Fuji will take some time.

Bit o'fishing on Lake Eildon.

What to do with the rest of my time?

Why not do a Fraser Island trip?
Take a few days to get up here, 10 days on the island and few days to get home.
We've camped there during winter, is still pretty good.

You could always go someplace else, but that would just a be a compromise on the bestest spot on earth.

Thnx guys, at this stage they're holding me to my notice period so can't quite just pack up and go as much as I want to.

Should be able to disappear for a few days at a time, as the office is in Brisvegas and I predominantly work on the road(or plane), or from home.

Fraser does sound good and at least it's not School Hol's so nowhere will be busy.

Cutting firewood with Fuji would be a full time job for you pyro's that will fill in years!  :D

So no more drug deals? Hope the new adventure has something equally as dodgy sounding. Like if you work for a company making cup hooks you could say you are a hooker?  ;D

Good luck with it all anyway mate  :cup:

Just go in the office and sit and stare at people all day, don't say a word, they will soon tell you to have some time to your self.

Maybe you could make Fuji a trailer to cart fire wood in?

Think Nay-DMax would rather see me get the 6x4 home that the trailer I have temporarily replaced it with though! I have actually loaned out 3 of my trailers ATM. My tandem with a load of pine blocks wen to a mate's house for a party tomorrow night, the father in law has my 5x4 with pine blocks in it and Fuji had my 6x4. I'm having trailer withdrawals so I had to bring home a "tandem" load of trusses! Can't tow that with the DMax though!

Does the place you get your fire wood close for winter? Probably no point trying to get my trailer back from Fuji till he has finished for the season. I'm in no hurry for it anyway and if I'm desperate I'll just crab one from work with the crane truck!
