Breath-taking Views ... continued

Yeah, so where was I ...?

That's right, Silica dust.

Apparently RTA are going to cover us with dust. No, not us here at the Watchdog. Us: as in you poor bastards living in Nanum.

According to one of our many unreliable sources, the tailings dam behind Denman's Swamp is said to be getting a face-lift. If you don't know where this is you soon will ... just listen for the bulldozers knocking down the regenerated trees. If that's not enough of a signpost for you, perhaps you can wait until the dust starts flying.

Of course, once the dust blankets everything you'll have Buckley's chance of finding the joint.

The one good thing about dust is that it dries out your throat ... which means you need to wet your gullet with a cool - overpriced- beverage.
