so i still have a job! woopie!
yep im safe for now!
so shauns interview went ok! he drove all the way to Taupo and didnt get lost! big hand for him!
interview was in a group so he is not liking his chances but im sure it will be ok!

vince and josh were a bad influence as usual and got him drunk! well im sure he didnt need much persuasion!

now for the good bit! on the way back up to the wonderful Kerikeri mr shaun farrow got caught speeding! shock shock horror horror never done that before! he is saying its because he drove 1360K in 2 days and was only going 14K over the 100 limit!

so its raining today so the lads are not picking and im not working as we dont have much fruit in stock so we had 2 days off! really good! definitely needed it!

anyho hope all is well

been working so much its crazy! iv been doing over time this weeks so thats 8am to 8.30pm! and shaun has been chilling out picking from 9.30ish to about 5.30ish! all dependent on the weather! what it is to be a girl!

shaun is heading south in a few days to go to an interview for a snow season! life attendant or something along those lines! he is very pleased about it and now has to figure a way to get down there! we are thinking car but he will have to get there and back all on his own! umm that will be tricky! :)

erm not much else! got a day off on sunday as it is a bank holiday! going to the farmers market! get lots of cheep food! 9 massive corn on the cobs for 5 bucks! cant go far wrong with that now can you!

mucho loveo charlie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

went shopping today!

was really nice to spend some money and time on me! shaun went to work with the lads picking so me and charlotte hit the shops! left at 8.30am and just got back at 3.15pm! woop woop walked bloody miles! saw a pretty waterfall so was good and had a subway which was even better! bought some food and lots of new clothes! think i have doubled what i have!

moving rooms tomorrow so we have a room all by ourselves! will be nice not to have people everywhere! getting sick of dorms!

not a lot to report on the job front still going and still boring! did two days of repacking which is basically unpacking all the boxes making sure all the fruit is good and packing them back up!

everyones really nice and shaun keeps going fishing so he is a happy chappie!

not a lot has happened

so we have been working as much as we can! thats about it really! shaun goes fishing when rod is heading out but other than that not much to report! everyone here is really nice as the guy who was horrible got kicked out much helped by me and charlotte! we are so good! no dont feel sorry for him! he was nasty well just not nice and he had unset lots of people! thats about all that has really happened! well i went to the shop yesterday to get some coke to go with my rum i bought in OZ but they wouldnt let me buy coke as it was easter and had to get pepsi! crazy crazy crazy! didnt end up drinking it went to bed with a mag while shaun played on his computer with ash and others! dont think they will ever give up! they only stop when they need a beer! not all that healthy really!
ooo went to the cinema again to watch the clash of the titans! was ok not sure if i will buy it but was good to do something! might go again this week!

happy easter! dont eat to much choc! im off to get some food!

love charlie xxxxxxxxxxxxx

the job continues.......

the days have been dry so shaun and his friends have hit the orchards to pick the kiwis! he says its boring and has to bend down all the time but other than that he has it easy! well i think he has it easy!
me and charlotte and been in the packing house grading the fruit before it gets packed and shipped off to far away places like Taiwan! so my job is to pick out any damaged, misshapen any with big blemishes basically anything that defaces it or that might cause it to go bad while in transit! ooo a useless piece of info for you... did you know that if you wear strong perfume it will cause the fruit to ripen? true it does!
i have the best outfit in the world! a apron and a very fetching hairnet and a pair of gloves! yep i look amazing!

the good thing is we get biscuit in the brake times! and toast in the morning! they are pretty nice people! my supervisor is wicked! shes really nice but he main boss man scares the living day lights out of me! he had no facial expressions and looks mad all the time so i try to stay clear of him!

so day off today it being good friday! the time has gone really fast! so my plans for today.... do washing maybe walk to the waterfall not really sure. its only 10am!

have a good easter!

love charlie and shaun
