I was at a meeting at VicRoads, Traralgon on Weds and let the guys there know I was finishing that day. They gave me a list of agencies they use for consultants.
Not ready to do anything for a while. I really need timeout.
So looking at getting another vehicle with all the mod-cons to go on a road trip.

Woohoo!
Hope you don't mind if we live vicariously through you wash
Congratulations Wash. Life is for living, and you will only do it once...
wash2u: I have finally had enough of work. I have spent the last 3 hours writing about the crap of what I have had over the last 3 years and the problems that have risen for me during thst time.
As of tomorrow, I am retired.

Except this miserable weather means that I do not want to go just yet.
Maybe tomorrow, maybe not. Need to have the means (transport wise) to do the things I want.
Been busy with some writings, and tomorrow someone is coming to pick up the work vehicle. One less burden. Although I will miss the Peugeot Sports Wagon that I was leasing and all expenses paid in the lease agreement.
Now I will have to pull the wallet out when I want to go driving.
Newlife08: If you can - go back working for the same mob as a "Consultant"???As a friend said to me, I am doing the same job, less hours, choose when I want to work for double the money!
Had lunch today with a few guys I used to work with. Looks like I did make a good decision in leaving. Would take a lot more $$$$$$$$$$$ to get me back there.
Heading north in about 10 days for about 5-6 weeks. People to visit, places to see. Bit of prospecting. Know a couple of good places for opals and garnets but might try my hand at emeralds and rubys along the way.
5 years ago, I dug up some decent garnets and made them into earings and a necklace for my daughter's wedding present. Now they are a Family Heirloom. "Dad dug them up, Dad made them." Okay, I did get a cutter to do the real work.

Hey wash..i collect crystals.You wanna find me some gems on your travels?Heading north in about 10 days for about 5-6 weeks. People to visit, places to see. Bit of prospecting. Know a couple of good places for opals and garnets but might try my hand at emeralds and rubys along the way.

Always worth looking for crystals. I found some half decent zircon in the Northern Territory a few years back, although a guy 2 metres away found a solid crystal while my finds had been a bit broken.
Okay, let me think about this. I need to travel 5,000kms there and back again (lots of places to look) to find 1 decent crystal. Add that and I do need to have a Fossikers License, need to camp there and back again, and maybe find one decent crystal.
And then I need to get it to you. This will cost you a lot of coffee
Just heard recently that coffee is the #2 on the Trade Index
just behind Oil
