I was reading about how much the government is spending on eliminating pests and how farmers are doing it tough so I assumed a few more might have signed up for the extra income. I guess there must be enough s**ty hunters around to scare them out of it.
I just came back from one of the Victorian Properties. Spent 4 nights there.
Talking to the farmer, he said that one of the groups before me left a heap of rubbish, put shotty holes in his shearing shed and more blokes turned up than what was scheduled.
I guess there are farmers that just cant be bothered with the hassle of D##k heads.
The first property I visited south of Bourke had a regular camp site that the property owner took us to, it looked like a siht tip when we got there, broken chairs, old torn tents, cans bottles broken glass, toilet paper, baby wipes, food wrappers and so on.
My mate that organized the trip looked instantly depressed... I felt bad just looking at him
We set to work cleaning the site, by picking up all the broken glass, and burning what we could.
We left that joint way better than we found it.
What's wrong with people... where's the respect?
They should be teaching kids in school about respect for the Bush and other people's property.
Leave nothing but footprints, take out what you took in,.
