That sucks mate. My brother in law works with an excavations crew out of Bayswater or Boronia I think. They mainly do roadworks and pipe repairs/installations.
I'll ask if there's any work on if you like.:)

Our Digger driver has fallen in love with the side tipper/float semi and is telling us to get another operator,sad thing is I dont think we are about to put another operator on just yet.
