Why? Australians won't do much of the available work, so it goes to
illegals. Nothing wrong with that.

I agree! Australia is now in one of the biggest boom times the country has
ever seen. There's just not enough Aussies to fill the job vacancies.

The good thing about illegals doing the work that Australians can't do is
that when the business cycle turns and Australia goes into a recession and
jobs become scarce the illegal workers will leave and go to another country
which is booming and work there. Rather than stay in Australia and take jobs
from locals, or worse - pick up the dole.

Indeed. There will be a big campaign here in the UK to attract
immigrants to Oz. I was reading through the list of skills and
apparently if you are a bricklayer, plumber or hairdresser, you're in.

Tell me about it! During our February trip to WA, getting a doctor was
a snap, but a haircut? No way! :-)

Plumbers? We didn't even *try* when our airconditioner flooded our
campervan! :-)

Bricklayers? Don't know. Didn't need them. :-)

I also did a trip around Australia recently. On a couple of occassions I
needed a mechanic. The reply was always the same when I went to a workshop

"Bring it back next week can ya mate"

As you'd expect, I just did the work myself on the side of the road.

Our experience was a little better, but indeed most of the time they
are fully booked and, understandably, reluctant to drop scheduled work
to help a 'stranded' tourist. In our experience, some understanding both
ways goes a long way, literally! :-)

I can't let that one go. No matter where you go in the world
you'll come across idiots. Shades of the Griswolds.

My experience in 1997 when I wandered the coast from
Rockhampton to the SA Yorke Peninsula and inland as far as
Broken Hill and Lightning Ridge was the opposite. When I
broke a spring in Howard, a tiny town north of Maryborough
(Qld), the local mechanic worked for several hours to remove
it (home-built van, not by me:-), the spring works in
Maryborough made up a new one - and a spare, the RACV paid
for my night in a motel, and the Howard mechanic installed
the new spring the next morning. Spring costs (including
spare) - $40, labour $70.

When the other spring broke in Narrabri - similar service
there, on the spot. In fact, I never had the sort of
problems you mention.

When the car brakes failed near Port Wakefield, the local
mechanic cheerfully did emergency repairs - without charge -
so that we could get to Adelaide safely for a full overhaul.
We had many similar stories over an 8 month trip.

My mum has been wandering around in a solo motorhome for a
few years now - and also has never been stranded like that.
I'd worry if she was - she's 80yo. I think she's somewhere
near Bundaberg at the moment.

Cheers, Alan, Australia
