Don't leave us !
You'd better find out if they have internet first and foremost
Seriously though.
Never been there - but I bet it's a big decision to make D&W.
Is it a 'short term' or 'long term' position you're being offered.
You get what you give....

I assumed the Internet hadn't reached Mt Isa yet?
But if there is, i'd say my place of work would be the first place to be connected.
It's a long term position, but in all honesty couldn't see myself up there for more than 1-2 years.
Just a bit of a kick-start for the career.

Goodluck with your decision making

The ratio of males to females living in Mount Isa is reputedly five to one. Mayor John Molony drew international press attention in August 2008 when he told the Townsville Bulletin newspaper that Mount Isa's gender imbalance made it a good place for "not so attractive" women to live. However, the most recent census found that men actually comprise only 52.6% of the population and that the five-to-one figure is an exaggeration.

Dont get Lofty and Isa confused......
I love grapes. With grapes, you always get another chance. You know, if you have a crappy apple or a peach, you’re stuck with that crappy piece of fruit. If you have a crappy grape, no problem-just move on to the next. ‘Grapes: The Fruit of Hope.

Not as silly as it sounds. I'm sure there's a few towns they you'd rather not drive through.

Often stinking hot up there (near Cloncurry which holds the Aus temperature record I think).
You'd want it to be a bloody good job...
