Hi guys I thought I would just give you an update on what is happening.
Well after their first flight, to Darwin from Bali, being cancelled due to engine failure, the boys managed to fly out last night leaving the poor brother in hospital...drugged and alone!!
The rest of the boys managed to make it to Darwin BUT after boarding the flight to Cairns and making it to the runway....they were turned back due to electrical problems. After a long wait they were all taken by bus to a resort where they were given breakfast and a room so they could have a sleep as they had flown all night.
After a couple of hours they were taken back to the airport and have been there ever since.
Qantas have had to fly in parts from Melbourne and Perth.
I have just had word at 4pm that they are now boarded and ready to depart. Poor buggars started out at 9.30pm last night in Bali.
Hubbie had a brain strain.....he declared medication which customs wanted to see, when he opened his case he had two cartons of cigarettes...WHY he didn't give one carton to the Son or Nephew, (who are non smokers)..I have no idea!!!!
So the nice customs man gave him a lecture and two choices...$250 fine or $106 duty. At least he was smart enough to choose the duty!!
Up date on the drugged up brother.....I have still had to converse with the insurance from Cairns then let the brother in Bali know...I think we may finally have it sorted. I will keep you posted and won't bore you with all the dramas of today!
He is still flat on his back and is in a lot of pain. He said the only thing keeping him from jumping out of the nearest window is his daily sponge baths by the young good looking nurse!!
They have given him stronger drugs and if they don't work they are going to give him steriod injections.
My parents, who live in WA are freaking and talking about the family all dobbing in and sending me over to help!!
I am going to wait until the boys get home (IF they get home!) tonight and sus the situation out then!
One things for sure have to get rid of the pretty young nurse and offer to do the sponge bathing myself....that should get him outa the bed!!!
