Fairlie, pretty good feeling. Lying in a double bed, ele blanket on listening to a pod cast from the 10 o clock show. Arrived yesterday on my big green f*** bus. Got a good few looks from the other people getting off in a sheep town in the middle of nothing. Yan give me a hug. Man hug. Sorry bear hug 6,8 german crusher. Bug hug of course to Jess. Got on really well with her. So got a text from Hannah (CS) to meet her in a gallary. Rolled up the street called in said my hellos, dropped my bag. Went to the Fairlie tourist information place. Got a welcome back. Yet to open. Called Peter about looking at the house. Picked me up but he said he had a few things to do. So we went to the golf club. Getting damp in. Checking out storm trains. Poured water down pipes. Got an apple. Then off to unload cows going into peters field. And set up ele fences. Off to view the house. Little street. Cut grass. Wooden houses. first impression rather cool. House it's self is rather cold. Checked out the rooms 1 double bed. But the warmest room to me has 2 single beds. First right . Close to kitchen so should get some heat transfer. After went to his house for a very good chat. then got dropped round to my CS house. Talked a bit, nice fire , fat cat. Clement came home, pretty cool guy. Went with Hannah to get some tia or is it spelt tie. Amazing. White guy, local cooking up some mean food, then off home. Up today at 7.30 to go watch a sheep drive in the town. Then called up to see Peter about work. Was heading up the mountain and said I could join him, does that mean i will get paid, work it out next week. But for reference. 10 til 5. Replaced a diff weight, removed an exhaust , put stickers on the bins, dug out a channel to increase water flow into the water catchment system they have for snow making. Made up some pipe to test fill the tank, 4000 liters . So timed it. Pretty much 10 mins to fill. 400 L an min. Pretty good water flow. Then fitted a window. And back down the road. He says I only have 3 days work to do. Then WTF will I do. We shall see. Peter seems very open to letting me stay. But how long is too long, will I get board. Squash club on a Thursday. And might start the shooting club. As I said good feeling. Couple of b****es about. Keeping my eyes peeled
