team - Bruce, me, Tasha, Dave, Ceara, Brecht, Chloe, Amelie, Gen, Joe.
MON - Off to Huia with Bruce this week - yes, yes I'm back with CVNZ, they just can't get rid of me ;p Had lucnh when we go tthere then out to pull weeds. I got stung by a wasp so Amelie and me sat out of the way whilst Bruce told the rangers there were a fair few wasps around, decided we should carry on working, me and Amelie didnt, then DAve go tstung so we upped and left. Went to Whatipu beach to cut gorse instead and then up to the caves and back to the house, very short day of 'work'. Played shithead after work, I was shitehead then rang Adam :DDDD chatted for about and hour. Soooo good, I miss him like crazy and loved getting to chat again 😊 yay
TUES - Cut gorse today, all day in the hot hot sun. I was so lathargic, I really couldn't be bothered, none of us could really, nor Bruce so by 2 we finished as had run out of water and Bruce hated the work as we only had 2 bottles of poison and no scrubbar to cut up th egorse easier. Went swimming after work, nice water, warm 😊 That's about it for today...
WEDS - Gorse again today, finished by 1.45ish as had ran out of poison! Went up to the look out, well I stayed in the car with Joes iPod as I had already been up and was waaay too tired ot go up again, I blame the ducks for this! Chilled on the sofas afterwards, had a really firly chat with Tasha, Chloe and Ceara, was great, I never have them anymore! 😊 Brecht made pancakes after food, sooooooo good!! Played shithead then bed.
THURS - HAving run out of poison we couldn't do gorse, couldn't pull the weeds becaus eof wasps so they tried to find us work, went to a carpark and prettyfied it. Litterpick, trimming back plants and I pulled out Asparagus crawling plant - nasty weed that choked everything, it was good releasing all the natives from its suffocation 😊 Was in the bush pulling it out and heard someone yell for help, thought it was them messing on but after the 3rd call I ran to find out what happened. Tasha had fallen and twisted her ankele badly, Chloe ran to get Bruce and then he bandaged her and piggybacked her out of the bush. Poor Tasha. Finished by about 12, went back, had lunch, Bruce took us in the van for the others to go for a walk, I stayed with TAsha in the van but the weather got really bad so Bruce called them back in. We went to town instead to get Ceara a cake - was her bday. I piggybacked Tasha around 😊 Messed on back at the house, had food and pavlova and packed.
FRI - Terrential rain set in so left straight after brekki, back to ACB by 10!! so early! Internet, Ballistic for Tasha to book a tattoo - I really should get a free or discounted tattoo fromt here, the amount of people I have taken there! Cooked then out for drinks, alright night, Tasha wa son crutches though - we fouind some in ACB. Said bye to Brecht, Amelie and Gen - they're all off home now.
SAT - INterent, I hate it, it steals my money and prevents me from being outside but it has to be done!! argh! Cooked with TAsha and watched a film in the film room then to the cinema to see He's Just Not That Into You, was a fairly good film, famous cast.
SUN - Woke up to what sounded like WWIII going on outside, leapt to the wondow and turned out to be a whole load of Harleys and other bikes going down Queens Street! Wish I had been dressed to go see em properly! Went with Tasha for her tattoo, had a good chat with Nigel and Dan - tattooists. Bummed aorund fro the rest of the day. Got a call from Helen (Yarham, Mum's cousin, the one who Chloe knows the daughter - Janet!) went to meet up with her in Starbucks. Was lovely seeing her again! Chatted for a good hour 😊 So nice to see her 😊 Went for pizza - was free 😊 one of th eguys who works in ACB gave me a free voucher yay!
