Day 54 - 502,000km2
Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at 08:25AM Tonight’s cryptic clue is the size of the Pilbara, Half a million square kilometres! Lots of land to get lost in!
Kristine D won’t like this but Trombone Man was at it again tonight, he played most of Mozart’s 23rd symphony in his cubicle tonight! Combine that with the person over the back of us that coughs like a seal & we have a lovely little orchestra going on!
Had some brilliant sunsets the last couple of nights, so brilliant that we were so caught up in them that we did not think to take a photo! Except on the mobile phone…you can see one on facebook.
I made a guy pass out today! I was at a mine site 75km away from Tom Price & was giving my talk. Now most of you know that I tell people the story of my accident & how it changed my life & affected other people. One of the questions I ask is to think about who would be affected if they had an accident! This guy fell forward & was caught by the person sitting next to him. He went pale & his eyes were blank! The nurse was called & they took him out of the session & to the first aid room Poor bugger, I hope he is ok.
Hey there is a guy here with only one arm! He has this camper trailer thing & a Toyota Landcruiser. I laughed the other day when he was trying to reverse his trailer….He was ok going one way but shit trying to turn the other! You are a horrible man….

It’s Box’s birthday today, Happy birthday Box, I hope Dubai is treating you well & Lou & Chelsea got you a new Toyota 86 (I want one!)
Both my sisters accused me of plagiarising my description of the sunrise! You disappoint me girls, I had Mrs Booth for Year 9 English at Gunnedah High School, she teached me heaps of good stuff to right about!
Jack & Grace also hear the NO word heaps, but they are twins & it is always going to be two against one
Edward, when you go to Jack’s on Monday….Let his Pig out, even if your Mum & Jack’s Mum say NO
Arama, caught up on the blog. Nice to have you back, we were starting to worry about you.
Shayne compared her day to mine, early starts & late finishes…..Only difference is I don’t have anything in between Shayne. I do one session in the morning & one at night! Still a long day though!

Lots of my friends agree with me about the NO word, their Mum & Dad says it to them heaps too, I’m just going to keep doing my things until I find out what NO means.
I saw my cousins Archie & Anika on TV today, Mum plugged her computer into the box on wheels & there they were. I could hear them & see them….. so I tried to touch them. I nearly knocked mum’s computer off the bench….and she said that silly NO word again! I think it was more like…arghhh…Nooooooo!! Hey if any of you have this thingy called Skype can you let my mum know? It would be great to see some of you on the TV.
We haven’t done much the last few days, so can some of you tell me what you have been doing? I’m getting bored.
Love from us to you

Do me a favour and send some bldy heat over the only reason i am typing so many words is to warm my hands up ..
Also thats the second best excusse for getting out of a presentation i have ever heard from the worker the best would be i got lost attending work especialy over there big area to get lost in .....
Stay safe and keep the shinny side up!
Beautiful Annie, I am glad you are learning the word NO!, I only wish that more parents would teach their children this word
I just had a visit from four kids that had no idea what it meant either but the bad part was that the kids were 9,8,6 and 3 and were beyond the age of truly learning what no means
uncle Brad and I tried really hard to teach them but I can just tell that their mum and dad will undo all our hard work.
but I know that you are as smart as you are beautiful and your mum and dad will teach you this word and aunty heather and uncle brad wont have to pull all their hair out when you visit us.

James, The guy reversing the Toyota dont worry bout him his ARMLESS Ha ha ha ha I crack my self up!!!!!! I know Ness I'm horrible too....BUT JAMES STARTED IT!!!!
Two Irishmen sitting in a pub watching the Tour de France on TV.
Seamus shakes his head and asks, "Why the hell do they do that?"
"Do what?" replies Mick.
"Go on them bikes for miles and miles, up and down the hills, round the bends.
Day after day, week after week.
No matter if it's icy, rainin’, snowin’, hailin’ . . . why would they torture themselves like that?"
"It's all for the prestige and the money," says Mick.
"You know the winner gets about a half a million Euros”.
"Yeah, I understand that." says Seamus, "But why do all the others do it?"
it's been around the traps for a while but thought you might enjoy it...
What happened to the guy who passed out.....? Was he just awe struck by your amazingness..?
