He is willing to do 0.5 or up to 0.7 (I have spoken 0.5 with him) where he works for 2 or 3 weeks and then returns to Tas for a week.

| He would need to stay in one of our manses and we would need to provide some basic furniture. He can't bring furniture on the plane. He would need a car. He could buy a reliable second hand car or he said there may be a car someone would be prepared to lend him or maybe someone in the congregation might sell him their reliable car they no longer need. He is just open to possibilities. |
