Gee thats bad luck for your family. My 22 yr old son arrived in
WA in Jan. now at Tom Price and working at mine. dump truck
driving. loves it. Also does a 2nd job on days off, cleaning machinery as doesn't like sitting around too much. has done digger driving since 17yrs. we are
quite excited for him. other son is hoping to join him some time, also a driver. of course Bali beckons for the surf. lots of
opportunities if health keeps up. WA is a long way away though, won't be visiting in a hurry. might be easier to meet up
in Bali. or Surfers our favourite place to go. every 5 yrs if we're
lucky. lol
