Travelling service engineer

Hi there,
Well unfortunately I have no pictures for you this entry. But I will let you know what I have been up to.
I have been travelling around parts of Queensland and New South Wales.
Whilst in Queensland I have been to a number of quarries, including one at Beenleigh and one near Coolum Beach. I also flew to Rockhampton and drove out to a coal mine wash plant at Blackwater.
As for NSW, I have been posted in Sydney for 3 weeks before Easter and for 2 weeks prior to ANZAC Day. This is in aid of keeping up appearances because the service engineer for NSW has left the company I work for. I hope they find a replacement quickly.
While I have been based in Sydney, we have already travelled to Singleton/Muswellbrook. This is a large coal mining region and power plant area. We visited a coal wash plant for a couple of mines. We also went to a fly ash processing plant for a power station.
Next week we are set to visit another coal mine near Wollongong.
Stay tuned for my next entry, hopefully with some pics.
Cheers for now,
Damo
