Painting reshuffle

For the last few days I've been the offsider at work, it's hard work sitting in the passenger seat and staying awake :)

Today we had a special delivery, Star track in Canberra had been to the lodge( the PM's residence in Canberra) and had picked up and wrapped three pictures to be transported down to Kirribbilli House ( the PM's residence in Sydney) so this morning we went to the security cage at work and picked them up.

Usually you need to pass a fair bit of security to get in, but I just jumped out of the truck and walked up to the gate and said we have 3 paintings for you and they said no problem and opened the bollards and gate and let us drive our truck right on in. As the truck was driven in and I walked, a couple of people came out and said you have our Three paintings do you and said can you please not drive on the grass or the garden, as there was a roundabout in the drive and we couldn't quite fit.





The three paintings were antiques and were worth quite alot of money, so I'm not quite sure why they sent them with us, but they arrived safely, well I think so as they weren't reopened yet.

It's not everyday you get to visit Kevin 07's residence.
