I only ever got the chance to experience the mine type donga living once many years ago at Roxby Downs (YOLD). I was flying engineers in and out day and night for a few weeks so got to stay at one of their dongas dur G the day. Pretty flash, roomy one person per room. Man the facilities there where incredible! Food, steaks any kind of meat or fish you wanted 24/7. Swimming pool, gym, games room, TV rooms with hundreds of VHS tapes, best short term gig I ever had, accept for the 50deg at the drome and the bloody flies!
