Working in the bush

[D40Craig]

Off to Wielmoringle (120k's north of Brewarrena NSW) to work on Tuesday. Apparently theres nothing there except about 14 houses. No shops, no pub, no nuthin!.
Been to some isolated places to work in the past, so I'll see how this one goes, but I am looking forwards to getting away again.

 

[Old.Tony]

Sounds like my kind of destination. Enjoy it while you can - what a shame you have to WORK there!

 

[gadgets]

If I won the lotto, I wouldn't want a place close to the ocean and or city, Id be after a place like what you describe as a holiday home to get away from overcrowded places.

No worries mate, I'm going to call Rod on his mobile sometime over this weekend. We will be coming thru there (Bree) from the Coolabah Rd sometime Wed morning now as we have to be in Weil by midday, but will be in and out of Bree for a couple of weeks.

Im flying to Eucla WA on Tuesday to start a small contract, nothing there either

 

[D40Craig]

Never been over there but I found a stubby holder a while back that says "Eucla Cops...Nowhere to run, Nowhere to hide" with a picture of a big eagle picking up a vehicle......be carefull!

Other people.


hmm, thread brought a few lurkers out.

 

[180degrees]

yea but did you look at that town on google maps? theres like 8 houses and an air strip, unless theres some sort of precious metals there or whatever I just cannot understand what the attraction would be.

 

[B73]

I'm a paramedic and we get posted that's why I'm out there

 

[D40Craig]

Wiemoringle is an Aboriginal Mission. I do work for NSW Aboriginal Housing and work in a lot of these areas. I am also part Aboriginal which helps.
It may seem like the middle of nowhere (and in some cases it is) but to these people it's home.

 

[D40Craig]

No worries Brendon, I'll get in touch when we're in town.
As there is very limited recources out at Wiel, we'll be in and out a fair bit to Bre and Bourke.

one of my friends is a paramedic in training atm, I am going to pmsl if she gets sent out to some really remote town.

 

[wes570]

[gunning1987]

I was working out at telfer WA for about 6 months it was only a camp nothing else. That is where there is nothing, closest town in 300kms away and that too is a mining town. Avg summer temp is 53 degrees before you go into the pit.
