Back to QLD

11 oktober 2018 - Bli Bli, Australië

After about a month of work we had to move the stuff to QLD for the next job. The boss drove the truck and I drove his ute with a pretty big trailer with my bike inside. And off we went. We drove about 2000 km in 2 days (from Broken Hill, NSW to Gympie, QLD) which is quiete a mental drive for anyone that's not from Australia, so I guess I'm getting more used to the driving culture.

Right now I'm in a Castle on the Sunshine coast. A friend (Marjolein) that I know from the Netherlands is working here at the moment. It's a nice place but today I will travel a bit more north to Noosa and Monday I'll start working again.

I planned to stay here for 1 or 2 days and ended up staying about a week. This is because my Motorbike chain was making a bit of a noise that I don't like. So to prevent an unnecessary accident; let's get a new chain and sprocket.

So I went to the nearest suzuki dealer on friday. They didn't have the right parts, so I had to order them. They took my number and would call me about the availability, but orders went out on monday so it would be here tuesday or wednesday. Great start of the vacation right?

Well Monday I called back, because I was really eager to fix the bike and start rolling again, and they told me that the part was ordered and they would call me as soon as they had it in. Wednesday I still didn't hear anything so I called back and then they told me there must have been a miscommunication and they didn't order it at all! GRR!!....

So I'm sick of waiting for those dipshits... I'll just drive carefull to Noosa today and back to the trailer of my boss monday (in total about 80km, so not too much) and then order the parts online where we are staying. Might as well... So angel on my shoulder, keep me safe till I'm back at work and got all the stuff and tools be keep myself safe again!
