Shovelling Shit
Me and Yu Lee are in the car driving home from somewhere, and the car is playing up. There are loads of problems but the only one I remember is that the left indicator wasn't working.
We arrive at home, but instead of being at my current house we are at York Avenue where I grew up.
Yu Lee struggles to find a space to park and we end up parking on the opposite side of the road to the house. As the car is playing up Yu Lee has some difficulty parking and nearly crashes into a parked car.
As we get out of the car, another car pulls up behind us and Duncan Wang from work gets out and I ask him "What are you doing here, Wang?" and he laughs and tells me he needs help with something. Yu Lee says that she's going inside to call a mechanic to have a look at the car.
Duncan opens the boot of his car and he has 3 or 4 large blue barrels inside. He takes the lid off one of them and tells me it is horse manure, and that he needs help transferring it into some smaller containers. He says "First I'll just move it into here" and grabs one of my neighbour's blue wheely bins and starts shovelling it in.
I tell him that the blue bin is just for bottles and cans and that he shouldn't put it in there and he says not to worry as it's only temporary while he transfers it.
I am not really happy about him using my neighbour's bin so I go to look for some containers to use instead. When I return he has emptied the bin into some small containers.
After that we both work together to transfer the manure into smaller containers using a shovel and a trowel, and even a dessert spoon! The smell is terrible and the decomposing shit looks disgusting, and a few times I nearly vomit and have to stop and look away.
After that I wake up naturally in my bed at 4:45am.
