Good story. Love the colours in #9 could maybe even be a tad more.

Another great series of our vast outback Todd, well done.

Did you feel at all anxious or nervous about the amount of asbestos in the area?

Nice work Todd "Thanks for the memories". I had a great time up there. Our work roster then was 7 days on - 7 days on - 6am to 6pm. Every Sunday we would knock off at 3pm, grab a 10 gallon keg and head up to the top cliff at the gorge and go crazy jumping into the water from about 10 metres up. Ah, the good old days!

No John, 14 ON, not like it is today.

[Grumpy John]

Bloody hell !!!!, I thought you'd made a typo. You must have been knackered by the end of the fortnight.

[Isac]

The money made up for it John! I was the head mechanic so I wasn't overworked.

[Toddyh]

Thanks guys. Glad you enjoyed them Greg.

I wasn't nervous John. When I'm not traveling the country I'm a contaminated land consultant so have a fairly decent understanding of the risks involved visiting somewhere like this.
