The master farter
Not sure if I'm happy or not.
My eldest daughter, who is 20, recently scored a new job, she starts at the end on Feb. She is going to be a ringer at Nokatunga station. Pretty much a south west in Queensland you can get. The station is on 2 million acres and has its own pub. Lol. She will be playing with around 20,000 head of cattle as well as doing station work.

She's one bloody brave kid and I'm a tad nervous about it to say the least. But I cannot and will not stop her from having a go. I do have a feeling once she gets the taste for life out there she'll stay out there, as she's much like me, hates the city life with a passion and can't get enough of the rural life.
Cheers.

Wishing her all the best Mudski, no better place to live and work.
I`m lucky enough to be able to play on a couple of rather large stations,both sheep and cattle plus do a farm sit for a friend on the odd occasion. No better life.
What is good is that all the lassies, young girls, older camp cooks, and mums I have met are genuine girls, not the Kardashin types.
Go get`em girl

Good on her, mate..
Most kids her age have no idea what they want to do. If they are studying they drop out or change courses completely, if they're working it's most likely in a dead end job and it becomes easier to stay.
So south west qld you say..
You have to do the Simpson trip now.

Hi Plassy,
Was sure I'd posted that in the "It's all too hard, I'm a sook thread" (joking chaps).
Third glass of red may have worked it's magic!!

Got some goodies from the Great Down Under!

Have got another box back in december with bailey channels as well. Tried to find a similar one on the local market but nothing fitted nicely.
The windshield seal I was able to get with the windshield itself a couple of years ago.
Trunk side glasses I have not pulled the trigger yet because I am still trying to improvise with local market seals from other cars. The sliding window is proving to be a challenge.
GQ is getting neat! Hope I find some time to write about the latest things I have put together.
