Looking Back

Dingoes Proved A Real Menace There So The Family Moved To Capella Where They Purchased The Paramount Theatre And A Small Cattle Station Before Winning A Land Ballot Off The Failed Queensland British Food Corporation. He Then Married And Moved To The Gold Coast Then To Brunswick Heads And To Another Theatre. Television Caused A Recession In That So He Went Out As A Deck Hand On A Trawler And Cut Timber Before Selling Out And Returning To The Bush. He Then Took A Position With British Petroleum Being Granted The Whole Of Cape As His Territory. He Then Bought A Produce Agency And Stock Agency At Bowen In Queensland Buying Several Cattle And Sheep Stations Until A Car Accident Killed His Partner So He Sold Out And Bought Charter Boats Operating Them From Brisbane To Thursday Island But After Losing A Deckhand Retired From That And Went Back Into Business In Bowen.
