Re: Does anyone live between Gladstone and Mackay?
If your moving to sarina then youll have to grow an extra head 
thats the opinion of the locals in mackay , not ours as we havnt formed one yet.
but the tats and beard will help

Have started work on the ZZ Top beard already, much to the dismay of 'er indoors! PMSL!!! As for the mullet, that aint never gonna happen - gonna shave it even shorter and get me some o' them wrap around blacker than black bikie stylee sunnies!! 
Should fit RIGHT in with the yocals then! 
Oh yeah, and gotta get me arms sorted out - all over tatts is the go aint it?
Shit Bobby, hadn't even thought about that!
Was just saying last night that we have a craving for another one soon?
I can sense a 'trip to the curry hoose' coming on very soon!

Re: Does anyone live between Gladstone and Mackay?
I have the chance of a job up the coast in one of two destinations; Callemondah Nr Gladstone and Sarina Nr Mackay.
Have done all my research etc....but wondered if anyone on BE lives there and can give me the lowdown?
We are currently trying to decide wether to up sticks and go for it or not - the job isn't definite yet but we are trying to be prepared should the offer come through
So, anyone got any opinions on these parts?

Re: Does anyone live between Gladstone and Mackay?
Well, heres the go lol.
My mate lives and works in MAckay, and in his words, it is expanding exponentially. He is earning twice what we are in Brisbane.
I have never ventured up that far, and to be honest, I would I think feel a tad isolated. Possibly because I am so used to SEQ now.
I reckon, you should stay down here personally.. if you CAN!
1. you have a good circle of friends now
2. you live in a great area
3. kaz has a job, so gets her out from under your feet.
4. you know the area, and its becoming more and more familiar.
I must admit, tho, It has to be easier for you guys, that it would us, as we have several dogs kids and 3.2 billion flies to relocate.
I havent got any issues with where I live, as long as i am moving up the property ladder or at least sideways i feel happy, but I do hear Mackay is beautiful ( not sure between there and gladstone ( its about 5 hr drive isnt it ))
Mate, least you will be away from that Welsh Fella Soapy !!

Sounds like you have to have a comfort zone round you. Life is an adventure for living. Never live with regrets or what if.

Re: Does anyone live between Gladstone and Mackay?
My mates were looking to move over that way and have been on a couple of reccies. His brother has been posted to Gladstone from NZ.
Apparently Gladstone has a bit of a boom going on- so house prices are escalating wildly.there is lots of industry and is attracting lots of engineers- could you live amongst engineers????
