Well the times finally arriving, In 3 weeks we are moving back down to the south west after 2 years in the heat and dust. (I've clocked 50 Degrees in the shed).
Was a taxation accountant when we moved up to take up a position as accountant at a small shire (covering 33,000sq km), moving back as Deputy CEO, chief
cook and bottle washer. We also run the
Post office and Fuel station...
When the fuel pumps break down....my job to fix them
when the town satelite TV goes on the blink...my job
when the computers break down...my job
when the fuel attendant is away....(chief fuel pumper)
and about any other task that u can give someone...
Has definitely been a rewarding experience, and the people are laid back and friendly. Many a session at the pub has left me worse for wear the next day.
They all go by nicknames and it takes you 2 years to find out their real names...Jock, Jelly, Cookie, Crocky, Blandy and RED to name a few.
100ppl in town is a small place to call
home for 2 years, So we are looking forward to moving back, and will keep up with the
forum that we discovered while up here.
Have a good one
