Can't remember what I last said, and don't have time to go and look either!
I finished my dive course - yay! Got a free dive which I am going to take tomoro - the water is really really clear now, like 7 or 8 metres visability compared with the half a metre we had on Thurs and Fri! It's because it's been a bit breezy so it disturbs the sand etc from the bottom and makes the water murky! But its all cleared now! Looking forward to doing a dive for fun, instead of having to learn and perform a loada skills!
The last group who went out yesterday said they'd seen loads of stingrays and fish, and it shgould be even clearer tomoro - can't wait!
Have decided not to take the bar job here. I had my trial shift and t's good (VERY relaxed!), but they don't pay very much at all. It's $16 an hour, but after I've had my 30% tax taken off that leaves me with about $11, which is about 5 quid. They don't provide accomodation either so I would tio find somewhere to live. They do have a staff house, but its a half hour walk away and they charge $100 a week for that and i don't think I'd feel comforrtable walking back at 1 in the monrning down a lonely pitch black road!
So, decided to take the fruit picking job instead... It's $14 an hour AFTER tax. So am on like 7 quid an hour. Accomodation is $120 a week. And hopefully I can cram as many hours in as my body wikll let me! Hopefully be able to work long days etc. It's gonna be really hard though! Its picking veg - eggplant, cucumber and stuff I think. Fuind out more where I get there! She has space and work for me still, so will find out more then! I get there on Wednes.
