Darren's Story

His name is Darren Murphy from somewhere in South Australia. He has Irish heritage but does not know too much about it. He is young, early twenties, and is a dieing breed. Many young fellows are no longer prepared to do this back-breaking work. It is good short term money but has no long term benefits. A large number of shearers come in from New Zealand now. He had an unusual skill in that he can text while he shears, without missing a beat with either. He kept us entertained with stories of a TV series which he had just purchased: Californication. I made a note to rent it.
