Many moons ago me and a cousin did this on their farm in Namibie. The next morning when there were 3 dead sheep we pleaded innocence and ignorance.

Dunno hey Tom, it seems a colourless place...

I really hope everything falls in place, Tom, it sounds really exciting.

And don't take/post photo's that can get you fired. You said you're not allowed to take photo's of your work place

Thanks Ri!

Yes the pics I have posted were cleared, I did check with the guys first.
The farm we are working now (providing a service to other Huge farming enterprises) is different.
Rest assure, I will take care to stay disciplined.

Last night was a treat, we were given off since this week thing is apparently going to be hectic with chopping silage and also another manure contract.
Some of the guys went a bit overboard since there was a street dance and huge party but entry fee was yet another 20 dollar and avg beer price at a venue is between 3 and 5 dollars.
I was happy with the 'weird colorlous rodeo show'

and drove back on my own with a V8 Ford auto bakkie from Dodge town to Cimarron at the ranch and figured out how to make a hot spot with my phone in order to use laptop on internet.
Had to drive to Garden City just now only to buy a plug because I did not make notes when mr Zog advised me

and that was a costly mistake.....25 dollars later and I can charge my laptop and camera.
Glad that my 220volt laptop and camera chargers are not affected by the 110volt supply in the RV.
Also had to get special washing machine pods (soap) and water - 40 pack for 4 dollars and bananas for 50c (not bad) and a conga for my water and bread in the truck.
I got a nice one with pouches on the outside where I fit my passport, drivers licence and a note book to keep track of my loads and so on for 11 usd.
