G'day all,

I'm having a very busy year. When I'm not a work, I'm doing courses and
studying, so apologies for not answering some threads here, lately

What I want to know more than anything right now, is a question for Kathy.

Are you a Fitzgerald? LOL!

There appears to be a plague of them in the Tablelands, and west out to
Georgetown. Forget you Tasmanian jokes............Your bike trip sounds
great. Did you send that letter to Kieran's? I'm sure they'd appreciate a
bit of positive feedback for a change.

Rod, sorry to hear of your close encounters with Townsville hospital. I
still haven't got around to fitting the HF.

I'm loving the job at the mine. It's more than pulling in the big money. I
like the lifestyle, and the blokes I work with.

I'm still driving in and out of work every week (8/6 roster) I get free
diesel at work, which is good, but my GQ is rapidly depreciating, with every
trip and every road train that throws rocks at me.

I'm still looking at switching to Chillagoe next year. It's going to be a
huge operation they're setting up. Hopefully I'll be flying in and
out.............it's a bit too far from Townsville.

Anyway, hope you're all well, and getting out there in your 4wds.
