After way too long on the FIFO/DIDO scene Kirsty and I have decided to pull up stumps and relocate to Brisbane.
I will now become a latte sipping corporate junkie in the company head office and Kirsty will be doing something similar.
So to all of you in the SEQ corner of God's Country you might as well start your liver detox diet now as there will be some serious :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: going on in the not too distant future!!

Look out Brisbane !!
What sort of work you doing down there Symon as you may need an off sider like me.

Start in mid May, but still hunting for a permanent place to live. Will probably just rent something for 6 months while scouting the market.
-
Nice work symon make sure you move to the good side of town (north side) and we might have to tag along with you to cairns in June
-
Great to hear Symon. ;D Looks like we'll catch up for a few more beers during camping weekends. :D :D I also hear the rental market is better on the NSW side of the border, cleaner air, clearer water, better tracks. >:D >:D

Congats on the decision to move mate. You know Ryan will be always be wanting to come and dog sit lol

Hi Symon and Kirsty,
Congrats on the new position, I am going the other way and back to a FIFO roster.
Hopefully I will see you in June, All the best.

Symon You have decided to join the 20th century , slowly , Zipping in to Brisvagus is almost as good as 1959 in the real world . They got Lecke Lights at the flick of a switch down there but no daylight saving as yet . Enjoy ;D
-
Bloody beauty mate...................looking forward to catching up,.........by the way, Bayside is the place to be ;D , Straddie is only 10 min up the road from here :cheers: .
I can see some trips coming up soon to show you guys the sites :cup: .

Nicely negotiated. HQ Corporate Latte Licker! Brilliant.
Well now you'll have to peruse my blog for those excellent places to position the camper as a weekend warrior!

Must be something in the air, although we will be leaving Brisbane for parts north, but a bit further than the Basin, possibly the Isa or East Kimberlies if things go according to plan :cup:
I hope you enjoy your time in the big smoke Symon.
-
Congrats on the change Symon. I hope it works out well for you both.
As an ex-Brisbanite, I vote for south side, aka the "Keepin' it real" side 8). They keep the latte-sipping X5 drivers north of the river these days. To be honest though, I could quite easily live somewhere bayside, so long as it's near a train line.
Good luck!
Matto :)
-
Good Luck to you both Symon. I bet you notice the colder winter down south and at least you will be up North again in June.Looking forward to catching up. Regards Martin
-
Northside. There's only shootings and the Gold Coast on the southside.
And because I need some help with some CT wiring. I pay in beer.

I pay in beer.
You speak my language!

Mate if I'd known that earlier I wouldn't have volunteered to work tomorrow! If you guys are still around late in the afternoon I'll be able to pop around.

Hey Symon ,
If you give us the suburbs you will be working in , we can give you better ideas on where to live , and how to beat the traffic ...
( and whether you are looking at catching train / bus to work ... )
Just a thought.
-
Ill be working in the city and will hopefully catch the train to work.
Teabag - will see what I can do.

I believe you won't be the only one. ;D I wouldn't work in the city for a million big ones. Will mention that on my 15k drive to work, I average 500mtrs every 45 seconds.
