Feel free, mate. I've definitely liked the ones I've seen so far.

LOL. The rain started ****ing pouring down at about 3 PM. We had to
weather the thing PDQ before the mall below flooded. I don't think I've
ever moved so fast carrying so much heavy stuff (112 lb slugs of bitumen
and four-foot wide rolls of roofing felt) in such a short period of time,
mate. It was educational, but I was glad it was over by the end of the
day.

Paid well, though.
