    A new start

    Vines Tim-Car Norway-Students Label_2fb

    Well what an interesting week, I finally got my job , woo hoo! fuck what a relief.

    To say it was hard was an understatement, the interview was tough  I was required to do a presentation on the spot on one of the driest subjects known to man, which was a surprise as I did not expect it. To think on the spot and then be coherent takes skill, thank fuck I have a degree in BS! Anyway that’s over and I now look forward to the whole of health restructuring,which means applying for other jobs, o fucking joy!

    I was updating safari this morning and the update apparently fixes a bug with iphoto, well one thing led to another ad I started to look through some pics.

    L-R the 1st pic is of Eaglevale winery in Margaret river where my friend is the winemaker, he is French and makes some of the best wine in the region and is a great help to me as I also try and make wine… The second is an old pic of Tim in the car he built with his Dad, Tim and I had some fine times hooning around in it. Third contains my Norwegian students who became good friends and we shared many nights of food and wine.

    Lastly is my wine label for 2004, yes its a mans wine, full bodied, a voluptuous wine and this label does it justice.

    What a week

    What a week its been, battling flu like symptoms for the past week and I’m finally getting better.

    Had a bugger of an interview for my job, had to do a presentation which was a shock, as the topic was dreadful. Mind you if they let me go on

    I would have described the harvesting and making of wine! Still don’t know the outcome, should find out this week!

    Went out to a place called Dreamland that night with the crew from work, where we had a karaoke  booth, not a bad night, expensive but bloody good fun.

    Had some fun at work with this after my interview YouTube Preview Image

    Bloody hilarious

    I updated my facebook the other day and I took a quiz and apparently I’m Brian

    Well this is the new site, set up by Cousin Tim, you’ll get to hear and see a lot  about him in the coming months as I will be planning a vacation in January to the US, and yes that’s Tim the thin one!

    Most of you will have seen my old blog, Ramblings of a Highlander, I’ll post a link and you can see what I’ve been up to.

    Today in sunny Perth its actually bloody cold, not cold like the Northern hemisphere folk, but for us sun worshipers its bloody cool, well its 14 degrees, too warm for beer but cold non the lesss.

    I configured the site so I can post from my iphone so no doubt I’ll get the hang of that soon, which will surprise my students as they were amazed to find out that someone my age had A: a facebook account and B: a blog, well anybody over 30 is OLD for them!
