Well we have been here for a week now and are finally settled in the tiny house they have given us. I thought my house in Brisbane was small
Friendly town, everyone you walk past seems to say hello.
I'll never complain about nothing being open in Brisbane again after this morning. Went out for the paper and maybe something from the bakery...No chance. The only things open where the newsagent,servos and 1 takeaway shop. Everything also closes at noon on Saturdays too
Had a quick look at the golf course, looks a bit ordinary, but I guess its better than nothing...Maybe
Was hoping to put my feet up and take it easy till I came back to Brisbane. So I wasn't really going to look for work until I got back from Brisbane in late February. Yeah right, I start work, sub contracting a for guy on Monday who has 300 houses to do. Seems up here work finds you.
Kids seem to be settling in OK and also the dog now we have him at home after a quick dash into Mackay that took 14 hours. Left at 8am and got home at 10pm after the highway was closed after a fatal accident. We got halfway home and stopped to give the dog a drink and a guy told us the highway was closed 20 kms down the road and will be closed for 3 to 5 hours.
After hanging around at the roadhouse for awhile and having dinner there, we found our that there was a back road. Well long story short, not going that way again until I get a 4x4
Terry.
