FARM WORKING ACROSS THE UNIVERSE pt2

8/1/11 - Sewing the seeds of love. Well. Actually, pruning the vines of grapes, which is entirely unrelated. But nevermind.

Just a quick update, as I said before, not alot happens here. You can walk from one side of the town to the other in about 5mins. Its well small.

Anyways, we worked the last few days at this farm, pruning grapes. Its easy work, although my hands are covered in blisters from the Secateurs. Getting along okay at it, although the farmer seems to do about 3 rows to every one of our single one. Im sure hes some sort of robot! :)

We've got another few days work next week, then we get our first pay cheque on friday! Woohoo!

It got spent on a $10 box of goon, and then had a few drinks with Neil, Rusen, and this other Irish guy called Rory. We then went over to the other side of town, where another hostel was having a party. It was okay, but we got kicked out by this drunk crazy kiwi guy, so went back to our hostel. Played a few games of pool..

It was quite funny. This Canadian guy from the hostel called Jordagn ended up passing out on the pool table. Ha, then Rusen tried falling asleep, so we MAY have stolen her blanket and pillow, with a VERY pissed neil going 'Come on! Sure you're not going to bed! You're up drinking with the irish!', before promptly passing out on the floor of the room. Then a VERY SOBER me thinking 'Ill just listen to some bruce springstein on the laptop before i go to bed, because im STILL not drunk'. Then waking up 6 hours later with the worst goaonover ever. Sober my A**e! :)
