Got a phone call yesterday lunch time from my cousin asking if I wanted to work for him, today clearing an area of scrubb and woodland.

So we turned up at the job, and I kid you not, we were on the side of this hill that must have been between 40-45 degrees! LOL

When I say 'we' I mean, myself, my cousin Darren, and to guys called Toby and Mark. Now, as a matter of fact Mark used to race motocross for England! So we got on really well talking about motorbikes! lol He has had just about every bike out there! At the moment he is riding an 06 YZF250.

Anyway, back to the job. It was flipping nuts! Never again, crazyness. With two guys - Darren and Mark on saws, me and Toby got cracking taking brambles and wood to the fire, what a rip roarer of a fire, took all the hairs off my arms!  
By lunch time we were SHOT, nackered. lol! Luckily because of the early evenings we finished at 3:00! lol

I am sooo flaming achy it is unbelieveable, but nothing a good hot bath can't cure!

its good to taste reality once in a while. Don't cheap out on your home schooling.

Work smarter not harder and u won't end up like some of us forty sumthings living day to day paycheck to paycheck.

I could not do it. And no one does do that every single day of their life, the people that do these sorts of jobs are self-employed agricultral contractors, ie, they have a wide variety of jobs.

ML knows what he is talking about? What bit?

Studying? Umm.. yeah! Shhhh! Technically, I should have been studying, but Mum lets me go work and she just calls it work experience. And as for getting paid... We ain't meant to call it that. So they gave me a gift!
