It had to happen. If WA can’t get Chinese workers, then children will have to do. And, depending on the age, there may be a discount price for under 12s on the Telfer flight. By Gilly. In Cock-Burn. Home of the Cock Burn Thunder. And speaking of Cock Burn, apparently fights are breaking out over the name of the Thunder’s new digs. It will be called Requa Cockburn. Apparently the community wasn’t consulted. There were several alternatives, but surely it’s fairly easy to choose? DON’T GO FOR THE ONE THAT HAS COCK AND OR BURN IN IT! Requa Cock Burn. Jeezarse.

Ah, tremendously encouraging. Sadly, it appears that in these benighted times coal mines are somewhat on the nose, so it’s pleasing to see – in spite of the afore-mentioned – that sending children down coal mines is still seen as an acceptable practice. Fair enough too. I don’t see why the younger set should escape the effects of declining commodity prices. Perhaps it will lead them to inquire of their parents, ‘tell us again, daddy, the story of why you didn’t set aside any money when times were good?’

wonder how many girls who want to grow up to be construction workers, road workers, miners, etc. have walked past this and felt demeaned by the unnecessarily gendered purple high vis on the female mannequin.

Niche marketing opportunity right there for a face painter skilled at Southern Cross neck tatts.
Would have to get in early at the bouncy castle though as the hi-viz kids start plastic cupping each other after a few hours on the Red Bull and Moon Rock
