Jet: Yes. I do.

Ari: how do you know they’re mine? Might be a random photo I found online to save you data

Jet: I remember your tits, Ari. Very well. Recognised that tiny mole on your left boob. And the scar on your right. You’re ticklish in that spot

Ari: You remember my boobs from that one time?!

Jet: more than once, Ari. And you know it. And your tits are spectacular

Ari: Thanks *smiley face emoji* Consider the photo a gift for those cold nights and you need inspo

Jet: did you actually just encourage me to masturbate to this photo?!

Ari: Or this photo. Whatever’s good

Jet: did you just send a photo of Bessie?

Ari: I know you like the van. Like a lot

Jet: You’re killing me. I gotta go. Break over.

Ari: morning

Ari: just saying hi

Jet: morning

Ari: is this weird that talking to you every day feels right?

Jet: not at all *insert smiley face*

Jet: did you hear there was a huge arrest of the guy who shot at Trixie/Lily Turner at the Turner’s property? News crews from everywhere here. Trixie/Lily is okay.

Ari: caught the goss via the Gram and Ash. Everything is hectic after I leave

Ari: Tropical North Queensland is simply amazing. Can’t believe this is winter *photo attached*

Jet: holy shit, that’s a very … nice … photo

Ari: it’s a cute bikini. Also saw a cassowary yesterday

Jet: that bikini will only make more weaners show up in your DMs *large eyes emoji*

Ari: ha. Ha. Ha. The only *wieners I allow in my DMs are your *weaners

Jet: look at you go, knowing your livestock from dic pics

Ari: bought a surfboard today. Going to learn to surf!

Ari: drat, turns out the Great Barrier Reef means all surf is completely ruined over here. Guess I’m hauling this across the country to learn somewhere else

Jet: Scored another shearing job just south of the farm. Small job, maybe three days. Might not have mobile reception

Ari: In Richmond for a couple of weeks. Am working at the pub—LOL LOL LOL! Sending postcard. This place is seriously cool. *three photos attached*

Ari: Some dino pics and a selfie of ‘bar wench Ari’. I am seriously never doing this again. How do you do bar work?!

Jet: Drunks are surprisingly similar to stroppy sheep that don’t want to get shorn. And then there’s beer.
