Still around the ridges working, went to PNG for some work, with Exxon Mobil there doing the LNG plant, a very rough place, with razor wire and security everywhere, even KFC they have 2 security guards on the gate just to drive in, Life's cheap in Port Moresby, the local Rascals as they are refered to, high violence, poor roads, no maintenance to buildings, it was a sad sad place, but paid good money to build a new housing estate.

The photo of all the people standing around, were learning how to dig a hole, our worker in orange vest showing the technique to digging a good hole, The average wage in PNG was Au$1 a hour, less than Thai, and the prices are a lot higher, a can of coke is $1, to many expats pushing up the prices, Thailand is a big emprovement on PNG, internet is rare, as the cost is just to high au$80 a Gig, very little net connection in PNG

Go married there to Nunu, easy for her to get visa to PNG, so now we are official married. there are a few thai women in PNG port morseby, stayed there for 3 months. If you look closely, you may see the Celebrant, he a bit black to spot

Currently working in the Tanimi Desert, Yuendumu Aboriginal community in Northern Terrority as the towns head of operations CEO, nothing but the red sand desert region, wonderfull place 300k west of alice springs, hope to to back by new year in Udon, its suck a relaxing place to be.

just keep reminding them black fellas over there that you /oz play league against the Kumuls and you should be right....but watch out for them fellas in the hills, one of ours blokes just come back home after being shot in the chest with three arrows, after he tried to save his girlfriend from being raped by one of them hill tribesman with a bone thru his nose...the razor wire is there for a good reason..they can be as mad as apes when they get drunk..
