...with this intolerable noise going on.
Stop it!
Hello, boy. What's the matter?
You lost your father?
My old man's got the job,
and he's feeling too good to quit.
- That's him singing.
- Is it? I'm very sorry to hear that.
He has the most disagreeable voice,
doesn't he?
- Well, he likes it.
- Does he?
Now, what's he weigh?
- Thirteen and a half.
- Thirteen and a half?
- Fourteen.
- Fourteen?
Why?
I wouldn't disturb him
while he's singing.
Hold my beer, will you?
Oh, no. Not again. Boy!
Ollie, let go.
Get off. Get off!
Come on, hurry up.
Boy, get this man-eating mongrel
off me.
Get off. Get off.
Get off. Get off.
Hey, you know that English coot?
The remittance man.
The one whose old man's
a lord or something.
He's having a blue with some fella.
Good on him.
Can you see anyone with our beer?
Get off!
Get off.
Ollie, will you quit it?
Let the law through.
It's old Venneker. He's drunk.
No, he's not.
- A mad dog?
- Mad dog?
- Mad dog.
- Mad dog.
- Mad dog?
- Mad dog.
Look out, he leaning.
I was bitten by a mad dog once.
Oh, God, I was crook.
They wouldn't let me have any beer
for a whole month.
Paddy.
Paddy!
When are we supposed to
pick up the sheep?
What's the flaming rush, Ide?
Since when do we-?
Conscientious bloke,
that drover you hired last night.
Got here before sunup.
So there you are, Carmody.
Hale and chipper for the job ahead?
Ain't it cracker,
Mr. Venneker coming with us, Dad?
Sean, you got the wagon packed?
- I'm gonna put Mr. Venneker's stuff in.
- Hang on.
Look, mate...
...I was a bit shickered last night.
You looked like something sculptured
from the sediment of a beer vat.
Never mind about that.
The point is, I don't need a drover.
Well, where'd you get that idea?
You make less sense sober
than drunk, Carmody.
- You got 1200 head of sheep to move.
- I've moved bigger mobs on my own.
You're not on your own.
If you insist on riding that dejected beast
of yours, who's gonna pull the wagon?
- The good woman there?
- I shouldn't be surprised.
Right-o.
Look, what's the sense talking?
I couldn't pay you anyway.
Oh, well, money is not my problem.
You can pay me
when we get to Cawndilla.
Ide, what the devil's
he gotta come with us for?
You hired me.
In any case,
I've been here long enough.
Most places are fit only
for arrivals and departures.
I like to do them both
as often as possible.
- Could be you talking.
- I knew we'd end up soul mates.
- I'm thinking of chucking up the job.
- No, you're not.
- Ide, you stay out of this.
- Speak for yourself.
Do you mind if I handle it?
If we have to live in a tent,
