I just got a call and I'm off to Bendigo (VIC) tomorrow for DSE as Base Camp Mgr for the flood recovery works we're involved in.
Due back next Monday. I hate being away that long........

I expect to see some more great pix and stories motorbike related.
I expect Gus to have pushed the Bandit home by then too Laughing

I may have net access so you could see a post or pic from me.

If not play nicely tongue

My old stomping ground (for 2 1/2 years anyways and 13 in Pucka before that) and MIL lives there still.

If you like jam filled donuts and the little donut van is on the side of the road in Kangaroo flat, get 1/2 dozen, you won't be disappointed. They are home made and bloody great.

Greetings from Huntly (Bendigo) Here
I'm the manager of a base camp that is almost utter confusion. To many agencies involved and little leadership.
As DSE we're here to manage the camp because thats what we do in a fire situation. We're not a lead agency and its frustrating for us staff.
Its a pity because the people volunteering are doing a good job helping people get their houses and properties going again.

Anyway just thought I'd pinch someone's air card and check up on you blokes.

Catch you later when I have time.

Bugger to hear of the politics 2wa whilst important work needs to be done. Are you allowed to have a piece of 4 x 2 as a plan, lead, organize tool to upwardly / outwardly manage those whom need it? I suspect you may be there for a while given the damage done, bloody good onya and all those in E.S and volunteering, expect a few beers have been earn’t when able…

Who wants a job packing up 300 tents? Associated infrastructure?
I have 20 people reporting to me today packing up our 300 capacity base camp.
Fingers crossed I'll be on a plane home Monday afternoon.
I'm looking forward to my bed and seeing my loved ones and Black Betty (It will have been our longest time apart) and payday.

I'll post some pix when I get home but I have nothing of floods just our camp.

We get to watch a cricket game here tomorrow and I hope my troups can wait for knock off before propping up the bar!

Catch ya,
Chris
