Construction Women

To all our devoted followers, we are sorry for being so slack this week and not putting up a post since Tuesday. This is pretty much due to me just being a lazy so and so.  Also I missed placed the cord for my phone so I couldn't upload any pictures.
This rainbow brought a smile to our faces at work
Not too much out of the ordinary has gone down. I've been flat out at work so didn't surf till saturday. The girls have been great, they finished their summer block of swimming lessons and passed with flying colours. Yew, go the little fishys! Jess and our little belly grom are doing sweet, although a little tired, it hasn't stopped Jess from looking after all of us in fine fashion. We are very lucky!
Too Cool
Little sunshine
Work has been funny. I just sing all day, a few of the boys join in but I know the others hate it, so that spurs me on even more. Working in construction in general cracks me up. People think of us workers as big, strong, hard working men, but really it's just a bunch of little boys playing with concrete blocks instead of lego. There are so many mistakes made, even by the engineers. Also the building site is like the school yard. All the different trades are like gangs and tend to stick together, there are bullys [usually the big wigs who sit in the office and don't get dirty], but the best aspect is the bitching. All these so called big strong men, walking around whinging and bitching like little girls, it's classic!

My only surf for the week was on satdy arvo at my local, and it was pumping! A few left hand barrels to end the working week, ah yeah!
Yeeeeeeeeeeew!
I was ready for the early but woke to a drop in swell and a strong southerly so went back home for scrambled eggs instead.
We had a birthday party to attend today. Our great friends Tom and Sherrin from St Images were throwing a shindig for their little champ Billy, and man it was a party! Mrs woods went all out with catering and fun games for the kids. On the menu was corn chip and salsa, fruit and marsh-mellow kebabs, sushi, sausage rolls, the best spring rolls ever!, pizza, and of course plenty of sweets. All of which was home made and for my judging critique I say 1O/1O. Everyone was as full as a butchers pup. The kids played pin the trunk on the elephant, Disco Freeze, Treasure Hunt, pass the parcel and had a chalk drawing contest on the driveway so needless to say, after 4hrs they were all ready for bed. On ya Shezza, top notch true blue fairdinkum! Stone the flam'n crows, what a party!  
Billys wicked cake
So after a massive day all of us Craigs are ready to kick back and do sfa. Bit of footy then Patrick Jane on the Mentalist should see me out, ready to go back to the school yard tomoz and stir the pot. Look out kids.
