gemfyreA few notes to our current group of “guests” who are here for some meeting thingy, meeting? Coulda fooled me.
- I don’t know how you got a job as a social worker, you obviously can’t read. We have signs in all our rooms about our power arrangement (solar then diesel generator) and requesting you don’t use heating elements or excessively use the air-con. I wish we had those locks on the air-cons before you arrived. It’s the middle of the dry season. It’s COLD at night, almost everyone has long pants and a jumper on. You do not need the air-con on ALL NIGHT! Even in the middle of the wet season us staff members only ran it for about half an hour before bed to cool our rooms down and only occasionally during the day. If I had my way I’d slug you an extra hundred dollars “excessive air-con and stupidity” tax.
- Please do not drop your cigarette butts on the ground you filthy buggers. This is a wildlife sanctuary. We do not want your little poison pellets everywhere.
- No you cannot go removing trees just to erect your marquee for 2 nights. Again, hello, NATURE RESERVE/WILDLIFE SANCTUARY.
- Party hire guys, even though your dog was gorgeous and well behaved, we still don’t appreciate you bringing him here where it’s a NATURE RESERVE (i.e. NO DOGS).
- Oh yeah, your original fax to us organising this shindig quoted about 20 people, not the 50 who rocked up. If it had quoted 50 we would have refused, we can’t cater for 50. But because our boss is nice, she’s expecting us to cater anyway. I’m imagining a big mess to clean up.
- You DO NOT go through and rearrange the STAFF FRIDGE! There better not be anything missing or heads will roll.
- Notice how the main camp ground is full? (This group is in the group camping area). These people have come here for the peace, quiet and tranquillity of nature. They do not want to hear you screaming with laughter and yelling at all hours. People stay in Broome town for that kind of shit.
- For the last time READ THE SIGNS! PUT THE SEATS DOWN ON THE TOILETS! (There are about 3 signs in each toilet asking people to put the seats down/close the doors to keep frogs out – if I had a dollar for everyone who didn’t do it I’d be rich).
I’ll be saying good riddance when you’re out of here.
Ah well, amid that chaos Ricki finally did her Indian cook-up. I'll tell you about that soon.
