THE HOOROO NEWS | The Best of 2019

 

Merry Christmas ,

Wishing you a happy, fun and safe Christmas break - it has been a tough year for many. You name it, we've had it - floods, ongoing drought and severe bushfires - so if you can, put your feet up sometime and have a laugh at some of the posts below... and I'll continue to do rain dances in the meantime!

We've had 23,857 posts this year amongst almost 80,000 members, so if you have managed to make the cut in the posts listed below - it's a bloody good effort! Thank you to each of you for making RFTTE what it is, it's testament to you all (and admin!) that the group is still going strong since I first started it to find old station mates back in 2007.

Please don't forget to #buyfromthebush this Christmas... the crew at Graziher have put the Graziher Christmas Gift Guide together, featuring fantastic rural and country businesses in an easy to use digital guide. 

For the job seekers, mustering season 2019 has officially wrapped up for another year, and many stations are now looking for new recruits for the 2020 season so check out all the jobs on offer at RFTTEJOBS.com 

Hooroo for now,

Simon | Founder RFTTE

RFTTE Drover with Ciggie

REPORTER v DROVER

Local Blackall Drover, 'Roycey', puts 7 News Central Queensland reporter Rachel Baxter back in her place... unfortunately it's an example of the disconnect between media and regional areas... The Journalist said on twitter: "When an annoying journo asks you to put down the ciggie... but you’ve been droving all year in the blistering heat and freezing cold. I guess this is a normal reaction."
