Hey Marg

Im in the printing trade, and for that reason alone I chose the East coast. Fancy that! I guess I was right all along.

But will tell you a story.

My friends boy is a policeman, and like me HE HATES ****ING FIREMEN, but anyway, the firechief had to give the police a lecture, and by the hand of fate , my friends boy, had to thank the firebrigade. :eek:

During the chiefs lecture, he was bumming about how ****ing fantastic they were, and they were so good they once determined a cause of fire was due to a mouse having a match in its mouth and running along the skirting, of course the place caught fire :rolleyes: ffs.

Anyway, my friends boy went up to thank them, and he said well tonight i am going home and me and my hamster will be giving up smoking :D Firechief not impressed, me I bought him a bottle of Jim Bean, his favourite tipple :D

:D

PMSL. I've got visions of you trying to get to the firemen in your hospital and the other nurses all trying to hold you back :D

Will tell you another one they told, ffs :rolleyes:

Man had a mouse in his house, set trap and caught it, so later on in the evening he was having a clear out and was burning letters etc, in the back garden , so thought, i'll chuck that mouse on the fire, but turns out the mouse isn't dead and ran into the house on fire and the ****ing house burnt down.

Morale of the story, apart from firemen talk alot of shite, mice are all arsonists :D

Expanding all the way to the east coast, where the majority of the work is.

I liked the look of Perth, and would love to live there, however, I am in the wrong trade for that area. If I was a plumber, joiner, builder etc then WA would be ideal. Most of the work I do, printing and related is on the east, so I have chosen Brisbane for home. Thats all I meant.

Maybe one day I will retire to WA.
