Echuca on the Murry

Thursday, February 23rd, 2006

we have now been in living and working Echuca for 4 weeks, or should that read; get up go to work get back grab tea bed, get up go to work grab tea bed, get up …… We work long hours to earn money to buy stuff, 10 or 12 hours a day in a tomatoe shed 8 days a week, sorting and packing tommies. No travel no new interesting or wired destinations for
these travellers Echuca pride of the Murry is home.

Curentley working in a tomatoe shed. Amanda has been there three weeks sorting millions of tommies in all shapes and sizes, Miller has been there a little over a week puting the lids on the boxes A’ has sorted or some other general warehouse duty usually involing a pallet truck. Working at the same place has given Miller a new ligt into A’s job, it Really is a shit as she described. Before this Miller has worked in Echuca, picking tommis, laboring at a building site, worked at a vineyar,a landfill site, and took down marques after a party.  No great jobs but i’ve had a bit more variation than amanda, now its just tommies.
Something to look forward to is that we have brought tickets to the athletics final of the commenwealth games on march 20th, starting to make plans on getting outta here, need to see more of Oz than the inside of a Shed. Its a big shed but Oz is a bit bigger.

Not much to report other than work, most exciting thing that happened this week was that Miller threw a saucepan at Amanda Smacking her right on her toes. Didn’t mean to throw the saucepan, and it was a big saucepan, the rim side finding its way to Amanda’s foot. Freak accident and by the way Amanda hopped around i knew it hurt, kind of thing only Miller can pull off.

domestic violence its a quiet town, and a slow news week.
