BakesLeaving Katherine
Well after 5 years living in Tindal, I've been posted. I'm off to Darwin at the end of the year.

That means I can still hunt AND fish AND crab to my hearts content

------------------------------
A mate of mine has just told me he's shagging his girlfriend and her twin. I said "How can you tell them apart?" He said "Her brother's got a moustache!"

In the US being 'posted' means you've got your picture on the wall in front of the Marshall's Office, along with the reward.
It must mean the same thing in Aus. eh?

I doubt you would fit through even the parcel slot at the P.O. anyway.....

muzzaHey Bakes - just a thought - Katherine isnt your wifes name is it ? Hate to think you were telling her to go via the 'net?
Course if you were married to Easy Rollins I could understand why you would do such a thing from a distance...

BakesThanks for the offer Sambar.
Yep Easy I did want Sale, but the RAAF didn't

It all comes down to people numbers.

ALL the boat ramps are long at low tide up here mate.

It's mercy, compassion and forgiveness I lack; not rationality.

GreybeardBushmanjust curious
If you were a teacher, would you take a position in Katherine? This part is serious.
Any 60-ish gun nuts who come from Vic who are into hunting in a big way and love spanials who were teachers here and now teach there?
Or maybe an ex principal (with a Nissan when he should have bought a good L'cruiser) Laurie from Vic on the School of the Air?

BakesHigh school or Primary?

BakesYes I would. The life style is great. Hunting, once you find a property is great. Fishing is great. There is one public school and a Catholic school that goes to year 10. Some of the people might take awhile to get used to however. I would suggest taking a holiday in the area first.
