This is how the other half live......

I thought perhaps you might be interested in where Jamie works??

I have cut and paste these photos directly from, the Company website. when I figure out how, i will add some videos Jamie had sent me. ........ don't hold your breath though :p

This is the overall site view. it stretches all the way up to the horizon to a purpose built port at the the tip of land jutting out.

There, does that make more sense??


This is Eramurra village, where he DID live, they have been relocated to a temporary camp for now
Don't get this though, he says that this will be the permanent camp, as they are still in construction phase at the moment. But this permanent camp is NOT cyclone rated, and lays in a flood plain??? who's dumb idea was that? And yet the temporary camp he is in, is completely cyclone rated and on higher ground?
It is only temporary though as in a year or so, it will be a giant hole in the ground.



The 51 gigalitre desalination plant. The ONLY supply of water available

450 Megawatt combined cycle gas fired power station - means nothing to me but sounds pretty darn impressive.
Their only power supply.

Cyclone Moorings. - you can see now, why he was unbothered by TC Bianca! ps that's not Jamie.


Equipment waiting for shift change. they work 24/7 365 days a year...... they'd have to.... to pay for the waste of money with the Camp lol :)
 Hope you liked Jamie's place.
Will endeavour to upload some more 'personal' shots.....one day
