Take this day, for example.
We arrived at 6:30am and snoozed at the gate of the mine for about an hour waiting for the guys on site to say it was okay to approach the machine. Then we get there and lo and behold... the thing still isn't ready. So you either snooze, talk shit, or take photos of the whole process.
Here we have a 4WD taking on a shovel (the shovel is that big sucker on the left).
And here we have a guy wondering how the hell he's meant to turn this thing off. Can't see him? Just on the left of the bucket there.
Half a pack of cigarettes later and we're finally allowed to go to work. Some of the guys you'll have to prod awake and watch them sleepily get ready. But hey, we're all getting paid for it. It's stuff like this that makes work worth going to.

I WANT THAT AND I WANT IT NOW!
If you know how jealous I was, you'd grin for a year, Vic.
I'm already grinning, Dive. You could re-rote the Thames with it.
But hey... It's only a little one!
