Hi guys, exciting times ahead...... These jobs are all over the agricultural regions of Australia. Best way to get one....go to the local agricultural stores (Elders, Nutrien, etc.....) and ask if they know anyone looking for labour, the local pubs and clubs (footy, bowls etc...). There are quite a few apps and websites dedicated to ag labour (not sure of them, but you can search and find them I dare say). Some labour hire agencies will have clients in the ag industry as well. I got my work through people I knew, which made it easier, but farmers are screaming for people that will look after their gear and give an honest and hard days work for those 8 week windows of harvest and seeding. Hope this helps. Pete

@@peternewhouse4852 Very helpful thank you. Some great suggestions I had never heard of to do before.

Good thing we got to our destination then. I'd hate to be called a fool 😁

It's a great place to visit. Hope it's sooner than later!

We're glad you enjoyed it 👍👍👍

Glad you enjoyed it mate. Yeah.....I could do with a good steak right now as well....... That blue dam lake was pretty special hey. We'll see what the "Insta-crowd" do - they might have a new location now hey.

Hope it's sooner rather than later!

No one right and no one's wrong, it's what ever you prefer 👍👍👍 Glad you enjoyed Corella too. Safe travels

A foot in each camp. Love it 👍👍👍 enjoy your next stay there

100% stunning colours. And yes, we are so lucky to have soon much choice. Safe travels

I think I definitely missed something. Better stay there next time to see 👍👍

That's why it's great to travel. Meet so many people with different focusses and opinions. That's why we love it. With a country as big as ours we aren't starved for choice either. All the best and I hope you get back there soon 👍👍👍

Well said 👍 Yep 60ft fronts are scary to chase. Thank goodness for auto steer hey I'll check out your series when I get a moment. Very keen to check it out. Cheers Pete

@ auto steer definitely makes it less stressful that’s for sure 👍 Thanks mate appreciate it 👌

🤘😎🤘

That's the spirit 🤘😎🤘

I am fortunate in that I know its only for 8 to 9 weeks and then I take what ever time off I want. Also, if I'm going to remove my "freedom" for that time, I want to work every single hour I can, make as much money as I can and then go home and enjoy my family. It's all in the perception I guess, but I hear what ya saying mate. Keep trucking and thanks for keeping Australia going, we'd be stuffed without truckies. You're all legends 👍

@peternewhouse4852 What do you do for the rest of the year ????

Retired, so not much. That's why I enjoy the farm so much and don't mind the hours. I do go back to the farm a few times during the year though for 6 to 8 weeks. I just really like farming

@peternewhouse4852 I'm planning on retiring in about 4 years, and travelling around Australia, this might actually sound like a good idea for a bit of extra cash 💸

They will love you if you can drive trucks and know big machinery. All the best with the retirement plans

Cheers mate. Really appreciate those kind words. 👍

Not 100% sure what you were saying. Think auto correct got ya

It's a great experience. That's why we retire. To do what we want to do, not what we have to do 👍👍👍👍

@@peternewhouse4852 fully agree 100%

Cheers mate. We get $40 / hour as a flat rate and the tax is as per the PAYG rules, but yes we do get some back at tax time.

I think the main message is that it is not as specialised and scary as people may think and if you have a good work ethics and a great dose of common sense, you can do this work 👍👍👍 Cheers mate. Thanks for watching and really appreciate the feedback 👍

It's a great way to fund our lifestyles isn't it. And it's a great environment to work in. I love the Ravy area. Spent a lot of time around Gairdner and Bremer Bay as a young fella, so the Fitzgerald NP was a regular camping spot. All the best, safe travels and thanks for watching 👍👍👍

If you are over this side of the country, the opportunities abound in the farming sector, so you never know, we could work together 👍👍👍

Glad you liked it!

@@peternewhouse4852 sure did

Not that I am aware of. Others may be able to help there. If you get on the Facebook noticeboards in the towns you go to, you can sometimes find farms advertising there, or you can let them know you are there and keen for work. Good luck

Cheers 👍👍

Well said. 👍👍👍 Definitely one of the best camp sites we have been to.

Defo

Yes they were. I never took notice of that. Good pick up 👍

You can do it!

Hope so!

I will plead the 5th on this one. It was a long selfie stick if I remember 🫣👍

The camp sites was called Gwydir River Common Camp. Hope that gets you there. Was a cracking spot

Hi. Thank you for your kind words and watching our travels. I'm pretty sure we were there around the end of July or early August (I'm very behind on my vids 🫣)

How cool. You're right, it is a long way from WA - our home too. But definitely worth the journey. Hope you get out and about soon. All the best.

@ thank you. We travel full time, we just choose a different state every year to fully explore 😊

That sounds like a great idea. One for us to think about too. Keep travelling safe. Cheers

I guess everyone is looking for something different in their travels. We definitely enjoyed our stay here. I would love to hear about some of your favorite spots, so we can add them to our list for our next time through the area. Cheers Pete

Happy New Year to you too, Cindy is doing well now thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. Agreed - the sound quality was definitely a bit off in this vid. Apologies.

Thanks for that feedback. Mic's are not on the immediate horizon for us, but I will address the sound issues in production where I can. As always, we do appreciate your feedback. Cheers

Hi . Yeah, sorry about the break in video's, but I love my farming and big machinery, so I took time away for that. Cindy is doing well. The weather in northern Qld (Cairns and Atherton TL) really got the better of her lungs, so we had to get to dryer air again. Thanks for watching and we'll see you again next week. Cheers Pete and Cin

Lovely to see you back.

Happy new year guys,Welcome back you were missed. Great video again looking forward to the next one. Cheers 😊😊

Thankyou. Great to be back.

It’s a very special place 👍👍

Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it 👍👍👍

Hope so!

Cheers mate 👍👍👍

No problem 👍. Hope it helped

Thankyou so much for your kind words and support. That really makes our day. Definitely worth going here. So nice and a great little town too. Happy travels

@ perhaps this is a silly question, but was there crocs in the river you camped at? 🐊

Not a silly question at all. I don’t think there were, but you can never be too carefully in that area

@ thank you, it looked so inviting, such a beautiful campsite

There were definitely a few people there hey. It was worth the effort though. Very beautiful place

Glad you enjoyed it. Which was your home town? this was a beautiful part of the coast and we did enjoy it. Cheers Pete

@@peternewhouse4852 lucinda is

Beautiful place. Will definitely be staying there on the next pass through the area. Enjoy your beautiful backyard.

Glad you stumbled across our channel, and thanks for taking the time to watch. Much appreciated. All the very best. Pete

As always, thank you very much for your feedback. We will certainly look into microphones at some stage in the future. Thanks for your continued support of the channel. It's always great to hear from you. All the best, Pete

Thanks for your kind words and feedback. I don't like slamming sites, as everyone's opinions and experiences are different, and sometimes we are just having a bad day so why take it out on that poor town or business. All the best and safe travels to you. Pete
