Anindilyakwa is a language and a people, not a place. Angurugu is the community you're talking about and there is no way anyone would have lived there back in the 90s and it hasn't changed since then
That's right it is too, thanks for reminding me. It's been well over a decade since I lived there ( not in the white fella's town....in Angurugu) . I'm not sure why you think that " there's no way anyone would have lived there" ....I really enjoyed it. Was a bit of a pain when the shop got cursed of course and the dust ups at night could get a bit hairy but overall a good experience.
You sound like you yourself may have lived there chazwazza, is that the case or do you stay at the other end with the white fellas? Great place anyway. If I was a fresh CPL right now I'd jump at that job, great way to launch a career assuming you get paid an appropriate amount ( food won't be cheap) .
Cheers, Framer
