my hilux goes 120km once the fuel light comes on

How long did you do the job for? Would you do it again? We are thinking of taking off indefinitely but need to work a few months every year to keep us going until super kicks in.

The bad ones are called imjim quinkins. And the good tall skinny ones are called timara

Lovely Ep and place, I was there last year for a few weeks I stayed with my mate, I found it very commercialised, My mate got permits and took me everywhere I found it very restricted where you could go and what you could do compared to Weipa and Cape York. Lovely place but.

Why bother putting up your 'jobs', and then make it so no one can fucking read them??!!?? Dislike video..

Do you reckon it’s a family friendly event? On my bucket list.

Nice video, you want to be careful of the goannas if they get a fright and there’s no trees to run up they will run up you !! I’ve seen 2 do this, one ran up. A guy and the other ran up a horses leg with a guy on it and the horse threw him. Nasty little beasties. Beautiful part of the AUs 👍

What a fantastic way of life... you're a very lucky man! I grew up in the Zululand Bush on game reserves and farmed banas and avocados near the Kruger National Park for awhile. I really miss that life. Thanks for sharing mate!

nice one, should have been fishing.

How good, you may be tired but what a way of life....any jobs going ?

Did that job for 7 years, loved every minute of it

The brolgas flying off is just amazing

At least you didn’t get the sack after your first week 😂

I need a job doing that lol Great life

Nice! I'd like to do that stuff. How do you go about finding a job like that mate? Retiree with 4x4 truck...

it's a good life

Hi. I thought they were Johnson river crocodiles as well. You can tell by the very slim nose/mouth. Olso very shy. Cheers

This is vanrook my partner and I mustered cattle there about 8 years ago but camped near a big dam used to come to the station for supplies and internet, phone great spot and people to work for.

You could swim in those holes no worries. All the crocs you have shown in your video are Johnson River crocs, freshwater crocs. Not the man eater saltwater crocs. They are like 99.9% of snakes and they will trip over themselves trying to get out of your way. Ask the blackfellas, and they will tell you what I say is true. You're up that way, talk to the blackfellas, listen to them. They have lots to teach us.

Well done. Looked like a good day off and time well spent to see that. I was wondering about the crocs till I saw your note. I guess they well be there somewhere?

If you had an EV your title Would have been, "Were definitely in trouble!"

Assuming your tank is 80 litres for the ranger you had 1kay left how many litres did vehicle actually take before full?

I've never met a station owner, hand or caretaker who didn't love what they are doing.

Your fault mate, .... never blame the missus even if your're in a straight jacket. If Diesel you should ALWAYS fill up in the evening before camp or park up as this keeps humid air out of the diesel tank and it doesn't get condensate water appearing inside the tank as temp cools before dawn.

You will generally have at least another 50km left after the distance to empty display indicates 0, depending on your driving style of course. Driving a Prado some years ago I got another 85km and that was fully loaded coming out of the desert.

Lucky you got them specs on. Better to loose a tooth than an eye bloke...🚰

blond wife, more fuel, lucky you made it

Hi great videos thanks. How do you go about finding a caretakers job? My wife and myself are interested.

why stress yourself out like that out there.????

Why wouldn't you carry a Jerry can if your in the outback hahaha

Three Dry Seasons, not 3 days.

Way back in the 1920s My father drilled for water on Kalyeeda and other stations( Nookanbar?) during the Dry Seasons, returning to SE Qld in the Wet. I think he worked thereabouts for 3 days. He named our Brisbane house "Kalyeeda".

Wow that was cutting it fine.

I ran out of fuel 20 + kms on the Eastern approach to Broken Hill . Massive headwind and my the chariot Landrover V8 County was just too thirsty . On dusk , managed to flag a vehicle. Had to get a cab back . Even 25yrs ago that was expensive. 🇦🇺👍🦘

You have inadvertently put scenes in from pt1. 👍🇦🇺🦘

It doesn’t take much to make you crack😅

Just discovered your channel. Please keep it going. Cheers.

Time you changed your nappy and manned up a bit. You’ll never cut it on the land if you run home every time you get a little scratch.

Don’t mean to pry. But is it good money, puts something I’ve always wanted to do once the kids are old enough to fend for them selves

My partner used to be a jackaroo late 60,70 he say the bore running job was always the best,no people just you and the the bush,cattle,an old land cruiser or Land Rover,the swag, the Billy, your got a good job there mate, if my partner was 20 years young he be out there in a flash.

In the Country, they seem to rely a lot on assumed knowledge. They assume you will know, when a well-placed sign installed in a logical position and facing in a logical direction, would end the confusion.

It goes to show how stupid they are if they can't mark gate positions , all information is vital in any job

hi, its a land for men, you will be fine, i used to work on stations for holiday breaks, started as a ringer, ended up stockman, then up to bore repairs, then station manager after that i went back to engineering, loved the peace soul food, i learned so much out there even horse breaking lol, some harsh stuff as well, had a stockman open up on all of us with his lever action rifle lol, he was stupid drunk and we were all crashed in camp cots, it gave me the attitude ive carried through out life, it can and will be done. best wishes to you sir

Looks like a good system. Well done. Just found your channel and have watched a few videos and have subscribed.

Do u Think u will cut the Mustard

Obviously an office employee just sucking the easy $ off everyone else. Welcome to the real Australia where you actually have to put a full days work in. Now you realise how the hard slog of farmers/private business subsidizes the city office non workers.

May a boreman is to hard for you ?

Harden up cupcake

You've chosen a wonderful and enriching way of life. The tiredness highlights that you've probably not risen to your ability level before the job. Cheers mate.

I'm currently working with a bloke similar to you. You bullshittered yourself in way over your head. Ill never waste my time watching your crap again!
