Nobody can justify “doing it differently” when not there to assess all available info (risk, wind, escape paths etc.) As for the ARB compressor 😡 rarely used yet we have burnt out two relays and just had it fixed again today in Kalgoorlie - bloody annoying !

I like the way you size up tue situation before moving. You don't aways choose the best option, but you do seem to choose the options that have a fun /scare factors which allows children to understand the why you make the choicesy yoj do. As a single mother I too my18 month old son to live /work on a mission in north Queensland ror 3 years. He is 60 now and still remembers quite a lot. I also found a husband while I was there. It was edcuatioal and fun an we met wonderful people.
