Hey.
So, i hope this is not to presumptuous, to start a new thread…
But, I’ll be in the states for the next 35 days, or so…Texas, Y’all…
In such time, i hope to have enough spare time to do a few touristy things…
Maybe a a/soft shop…
Give it a bit of time, i might be able to take a couple of decent snaps, for you guys…
Pls be patient for now…!

Have a great time!
Remember that if anyone tries to tell you that Texans are a bunch of redneck country hicks that go to church every week, just remind them that liqour stores and gunshops aren’t even open on Sundays.

All jokes aside, ive walked into the accomodation.
Its pretty new, mostly good, blandly generic (photos 2morrow, in daylight)
But, the floors are terrible.
As a real estate, guy, it caught my eye, straight away…
Dark vinyl timber planks, for flooring…
Then covered and sealed with a covering of laminate…
Then…
Someone has come in here, with a orbital sander…and screwed the whole lot…
Deep, dark orbital marks, everywhere…
I’d never accept that, but apparently, some company did, and paid full price for it…
photos to follow…

Stuff it…
3:30 am here, and i cant sleep.
Still on brissy time.
So, bathroom photo 1…
The light reveals, the circular marks…
And, they are EVERYWHERE, across All the floor surfaces…in every room.
Also, you normally tile bathrooms / wet areas…
Not here.
Vinyl planking, sealed with a laminate layer, on top, then " polished"…
Dont know how long that will last…
The shower curtain, will drip onto it, everyday…
Glad its not my place…

Worked in Texas for about 4 years on a FIFO basis. Fly in every 3 months for a month. Only problem I ever had was being stopped by a local sheriff one day while I was walking. Apparently when you want to go for a walk you drive to the mall as they open early in the morning for exercise.
But that was in the good old days before the invasion from the southern border and everyone is getting a bit twitchy
Guns were never a problem as Texans grew up with them. The scaredy cat escapees from California have been causing some issues lately, particularly around Austin
Chintzy furnishings is the norm

Technically, they are classifed as BB/ air rifle…
You must be outside city limits to discharge…
Not that the gang bangers worry too much about that…!!
" I was threatened, by the cockroach, in my motel room!!"
I’d be breaking down the door of the nearest gunshop afterwork just to drool over stuff, get yakking to a yee haw behind the counter and funny things can happen.

But good luck bringing any those back on the plane even if it was just th shells.
I don’t want Airsoft to be legal in Aus just for the better range and accuracy but for the diversity of replicase they have.
