Bikes and Cars and Money

Published March 16, 2007 by Sim in  

Bek and I dug the bikes out of mum and dad's shed the other day (well actually dad did but you know...). The bikes were squeaking wonderfully whenever we attempted to brake which was inconvenient so into our shed they went... :S
They sat there until the weekend when i headed out to sand down some breakpads and give them a general clean. Now they are at least functional and not embarrassing. :)
All we have to do now is ride them!

My 13 week review at Expohire was brought forward 3 weeks! I had a meeting with my Account Coordinator, Design Team Leader and Services Manager; who all said i was doing very well and they wanted to acknowledge that by bringing my review forward, which also brings with it a small payrise of $1 an hour. Not alot, but it adds up, and besides the payrise, its nice to know that they are seeing the work i'm doing. Its also a pat on the back for myself knowing that i'm heading in the right direction with this company...

Bek is currently working at the Gran Prix in a souvlaki stand, yes, she is the one selling you $9 souvlaki's! but they taste really, really good! If you are heading there, check out the stands and you may spot her!?

    do you want a new helmet for your birthday??? we still need ideas!
    we're proud of you for your whole attitude to this job placement and reckon if they bring all the reviews forward they might squeeze an extra one in! Great to hear about Bek's scholarship too -.

    Yeah - Everything we think of, you already have or wouldn't want! (found a nice a belly button brush!)

    You don't drink, smoke or take drugs, you 'may be' selling your car, live in a fully furnished house with almost 2 of every utensil (some of which you have several!), have a million picture frames and pretty things to look at etc etc etc.

    WHAT DO YOU WANT?

    If you don't come up with any ideas, I'll just HAVE to buy you a traditional yard glass and make you scull the lot in one go like everyone else does on their 21st!!!

    We'd love to get you something you'd really like and could keep for ever. So start spewing ideas before you start spewing a yard of beer!!!

    lol

    Rob- I think you'd have to put cordial in that yard glass. Or So Good even.

    Yep, I'm stumped too. Maybe there's something amazing you want and we can all pitch in and get it for you? What have you never had but always wanted?

    Oh, and I found a great photo of you the other day, I might just put it on my blog. Its very amusing. Bek would love it!
