Update its friday here just got of work

 I will post some good pictures soon tonight I promise. So I have seen some cool stuff last couple weeks. I am still being lazy and not walking out to film the kangaroos yet but did grill out some the other night. A little gamier than deer but grilled steaks is good. Do not think you can use it for spaghetti and hide the flavor. I see more now that I am not so focused on staying on the right side of the road. They decorate and celebrate christmas here very well. Lot of lights about.  As far as work goes have treated a baby kangaroo, their version of a porcupine as a baby called a puggle, a wallaby, and a japenese rooster. Funny thing is this guy who does wildlife rescue came and got a bird and he is very odd with a bad lazy eye but means well. He was chatting it up and kept telling me about his puggle and having to take 20 minutes to feed it and it was prickly. I though he was mental because thought he meant the dog breed puggle and was confused. Two days later he walks in and says here is my puggle it is sick now and showed me a baby critter. Wow was I off track.  Photos to follow. I will hopefully have weekends off starting January 7th. That will be good can go explore some. That is work and will post photos of clinic and such tonight just s o long to download.
   As far as the rest goes apparantley a lot of these people read the paper. The last 4-5 days been recognized everywhere as the bloke from the paper. As far as the nightlife goes I have two good angles the veterinarian angle works with the paper but I tried out another successful meeting line as well.  When in a different country and u say your from tennessee tell them you work for jack daniels back home and buy a round of shots. U'll have friends for life.
It has been too wet to try any outdoor activities. They play lawn darts which is bocce but can only roll the ball. Can't wait to play. All I see on tv is cricket but (WTF cant figure that game out!)
    They have the annual chinchilla christmas horse races next weekend. I am the vet in charge. It will be interesting. They say they get a crowd of 5 thousand out for the races. I am even presenting a trophy to the winner at one race. I will be really busy working though. I think there are 8 races for the day.
