The next weeks news coming to you from Emerald

Well another week has flown by, we have both been very busy with work, Susan started

at the pharmacy and has been flat out every day getting stock in and setting up shelving

etc, chasing stock and meeting new staff of the pharmacy.

The shopping centre opens this Thursday and will no doubt cause some

traffic hassles in Emerald, which they generally don't have problems with.

They have two ne wsets of traffic lights being completed as part of

the centre's opening.

The intersection for the centre is on the Capricorn Hwy so

the road trains are constantly using the road and their refuelling

point is oposite the new centre, so that will

cause therm some headaches no doubt.

Les very busy with work, visitng a variety of mine sites taking workers in and out,

some of them are very particular about visitors if you haven't been

inducted, (means having to go to seurity each trip and get a

visitors card then hand back etc etc).

Below is Wesfarmers Curragh Mine at Blackwater.

This is one of the mines we service, morning and afternoon.

Two/three drivers have to travel from Emerald to Blackwater each morning

(4.15am start) and each after noon to run these services.

Round trip to/fm Blackwater 150k's then use the coaches

located in Blackwater to do a 50k round trip to

the mine sites.

Well that's all for this week, the weather is starting to

cool down at night, and the nights are crystal clear.

The days are still warm but not too hot.
