My g/f's brother left literally last Monday for a year in Australia and has already found work doing removals. Not sure how he found it tho. He's just staying in a hostel at the minute. Police have already raided the hostel once and he's had to lie face down on the floor!

I don't know a single thing about it so it could be balls, but he said he's going to work on a boat during the 'prawning season'? Reckons he can make thousands for a few week stay of hard graft on a boat.

Perths not to bad at the moment so im safe that way.

As for the 6 months law thing, thatd be 'on paper' if you get me.... Pretty sure i wouldnt be working through the books all that time.
