Daniel Rawsthorne
How long have you lived in Parkes and what do you like about living here?
I was born here and I like how it’s a small town with big ideas. No where else would you think of building an international airport for the Elvis Festival.
Where do you work and what do you enjoy most about your work?
I work at Northparkes Mines and I like the Wednesday bacon and egg rolls, Thursday ice creams and Friday morning teas…!
What do you do to unwind after work and on weekends?
Muck around with the kids and fixing the damn tap again.
What are you really good at?
What my wife said was inappropriate, so I’ll stick with being a good husband.
If you could have a super power, what would it be?
Go-go gadget arms.
What is your pet hate?
My little brother’s chickens that he still hasn’t picked up four weeks after their holidays.
Tell us about your best holiday ever.
Contiki around Europe when I was 19 – yep, goooood times.
