Day 60 Yandi Mine Site Day 7
Wednesday, April 7, 2010 at 11:17PM Ok time to share some personal stuff, Ness & I were having dinner last night in the mess, its our 2nd last night here for this visit (we are back here in 3 weeks) and there were a group of aboriginal guys sitting at a table together having their dinner.
It got me thinking about reincarnation, see you can be spiritual don’t know why but I just thought that if there is a chance to come back after this lifetime I would like to come back to earth as a really good looking black guy!
Now apart from the fact that my sister Heather & her best friend Sandy (& I believe Nikki might be interested too?) would hit on me I reckon it would be great to come back as something totally different to what we are now? What do you reckon? I would like to ask readers what they would like to come back as?
Only two sessions left, my sessions go for about 60 minutes, so when you think about it I only work two hours per day, but the thing is there is nothing else to do here! I think that is why they have 12 hour shifts, because if you are not working then you have very little to do. Sure there is a pool, a gym & the wet mess, Ness has been walking & swimming, I have been on my bike, Ness has work to do & I have blogs to write..... but we are a little “Over” this site and looking forward to a change of scenery.
Now before I get any smart comments about only working two hours a day,(maybe a little bit more as there is question time) I have to give 100% every training session I do, I like to think that the last session I do this week will be as good, informative, interesting, emotive and as powerful as the first session..... and this is hard work, ask Ness.... sometimes after a session I am exhausted! It’s probably a little bit like a rock star or performer, they are only on stage for a short time but they have to give it their all!
I don’t know if you know but last year we filmed our training DVD, it was 4 days of chaos with arty farty film production people taking over our home. Well the product is finally finished and available to our clients, Ness sent out an email this week to let them know and guess what!..... It is selling! We have had a couple of people already purchase one, it is great to see the results of our work paying off. For those of you that are interested in having a look at a 3 minute preview of the DVD look at www.cnbsafe.com.au/safety-package/ and click on the Youtube link
Wonder what Bear Grills does on his days off? James, my darling did you know that Bear has his own facebook page and you can become a fan!!! Oh that’s right I forget you don’t have facebook.(Not such a bad thing)
On Sunday we have to pack the caravan up and leave it at Newman, Ness & I then jump on a plane and head down to Perth for a week. We have some work in Perth but will also have a chance to look around, we have both been there before but not together so it will be fun. Hopefully there will be a show or something on at the casino, I really feel we need some civilization! Maybe I will hold auditions for my reality TV series, I’ve decided on a name for it, I’ll call it BUSH HUNTER!
I’m starting to think Ness & Brad Atkins are right! I’m losing it! Brad...help me!!
Marg & Norm C.... Where are you guys this week? We will be heading back east on the 22nd of May, maybe we can catch up if you are down south somewhere?
Hey you reckon our trip is fancy, Mr & Mrs Boxhead from Dubai sent us an email the other day saying they were just “Popping” across to Egypt to check out the Pyramids for a few days! What the!!!! Ness & I might just duck up the road & check out a few Termite mounds! Enjoy the Pyramids Box & Lou.
Arama, Ness says she got your message! Cheer up girl..... you can always move to Australia? She is...I hope!!
Chris & Mark are on the move to Sydney..... Does this mean no more movies?.... Actually watched “Men Who Stare at Goats” last night....... now a movie with George Clooney, Kevin Spacey, Ewan McGregor & Jeff Bridges should be a good movie!...... how does this stuff get made?.... I reckon the idea that my mate had of a couple of guys travelling around Oz by plane, Bike & boat would have been more interesting? Especially if one of them was in a wheelchair....... Do you guys know any movie producers???? Simone...have a quiet word in Greg’s ear!!
We think we live in a big country, now how is this for weird? When we left Kalgoorlie a couple of weeks ago we saw a sign to the Orabanda Hotel just out of town. The name sounded familiar & it turns out that it is part of Michael & Lorraine’s email address. We sent them an email telling them what we had seen and it just so happen’s that Lorraine’s dad grew up over there!and actually owned a mine there. So we will call in and explore the place on the way back down Lorraine, we will take some pictures for you too.
Campbell.... where the bloody hell are ya?
Goodbye for today. Big hugs to Anika. The special James and Dan ones she loves. Nessie is loving wearing her Gumnut necklace, thank you. And to you all.
James & Ness

I just said goodbye to Dan at the airport and i am missing him already, what a beautiful boy! - I am sure he was meant to be our kid.
by the way I let him watch Braveheart yesterday as I couldn't believe that you never showed it to him, he loved it especially watching me do the 'sons of Scotland speech' and my tears at nearly every scene in the movie LOL
He is a bit better today but I still wanted him to stay longer, even though he woke me up four times last night as he couldn't sleep, we ended up watching tv till he felt sleepy.
In response to me hitting on you if you came back as a good looking black guy, I dont care what you come back as, I would never hit on you as whoever you came back as would just remind me of you, I cant say I wouldn't HIT you though.
When I am reincarnated I want to come back as a tibetian monk and live in the hymalayas but only if they allow revese cycle airconditioning and alcoholic beverages
Hi Guys.
Firstly I may be the only white person you know that has said this but I have thought on many occasions that I wish that I was aboriginal.So yes I would love to come back as a "black fella" (thats alright to say that - my aboriginal girlfriend, Maree said so) . I could then say I was a true Australian.
Have you noticed that depending on what state your in the aboriginals refer to themselves as different names. eg. nth qld - murries.
Remember - what ever race you speak lowly of - thats what you come back as as punishment.
Also - Bear Gryles is my facebook friend.
Id hit on you james if you came back as the Commando - So would heather even if she cant admit it.
seeya
sandy
OHHHHH!!! the commando YUMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd like to come back as a world champion surfer.................think about it ;-)
P.S. Brad became a fan of Bear Grills. · Comment ·LikeUnlike !!!!
i will come back as a dog any colour i dont care i just want to have a life like panda
by the way i hope you two remember to get me the tea towels you will get some on your visit to perth an excuse to spend some money or use my cut from the video
Yeah, well I've said for years that I'd like to come back as a pelican, because to me they have the perfect life. Since moving out here though, I've changed and decided I'd come back as a crow or an eagle. All the roadkill you can eat, and you don't have to track, hunt and kill it first because the humans do it for you!
By the way, I asked you a question (comment on Tuesday's post). Waiting.............waiting...............waiting................waiting......................
Also, sorry to burst your bubble but Bear Grills is a big faker. If he's surviving solo in the wild, then who's holding the camera? Behind the cameraman there's also probably a big, fat caravan posher than yours, followed closely by a food van. And lots of blankets and a first aid kit for 'just in case' he actually does eat those maggots or scorpions.
Well if I got to choose my reincarnation life I reckon I'd come back as you James, who could ask for a better life...working two hours a day(btw most of us give it our all 8+ hours a day), having Dan as a son and being looked after by Ness! ...don't think life could get any better
I think you have definately lost it you dag comparing yourself to a rockstar!!! HEEEEEEE you are too funny. Nessy next time he gets the madonna syndrome tell him to strip off and brun rubber around an oval to get it out of his system. Only borrow one of Nessy's bras
James
I have decided that you can come back as whatever you want as long as you dont bring the red shirt and black three quarter pants that you are wearing in the bike photo !!!
PS: is that a tattoo on your leg? - cause Im dobbing you into mum!
PS: I know that the above comment should read 'in to mum' - but I am still giving Georgia spelling and punctuation mistakes to correct with her morning cofee (SIC)
Also - we are waiting for the answer to Georgias question as well and I still want to know how to get rid of crows?
