The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.: from Nat King Cole's Nature Boy.

Story on tonight’s news in Adelaide on 7 and appearing on Facebook, a flashback 26 years to the day my brother( in the jumper) and two other police officers saved Chris a young boy being washed down the Sturt Creek in western Adelaide.

That is nothing short of heroic I'm sure Chris and his family are forever grateful for the efforts of your brother and everyone else involved.

It just so happened I knew the bloke who manufactured and maintained the trash racks in the creek, so I got one from him and laminated all the press clipping etc onto a board, mounted in the frame under glass, added four legs and it is now a rather large coffee table in his house. We are justifiably proud of him and he is certainly a worthy recipient of his bravery medal. He finished his police career in Port Lincoln and had a visit from Chris (the young boy) as an adult with his partner and child out of the blue. A great reunion.

That brought a tear to my eye. Congratultions.

The lead for my SteelPhase booster had a dodgy plug so I took it to my local audio/radio technician to see if he could fix it, "come back in an hour Dave, I'll put a new plug on it" back I go to pick it up and for $10 it's as good as new, that made me smile ☺

I advertised a SXS on Gumtree yesterday for 17K and got an offer this morning for 12K The reason given by buyer for the low offer was he had to travel to pick up. In reply I asked him with a smile as I typed, are you flying first class from London?

Similar but different item, agreed to meet him half way and then he asked if he could get a discount considering he was travelling 2 hours each way to meet me. Asked him if he would consider paying more as I was travelling 2 hours each way to meet him.

Reminds me of a story from an old India hand.
A British colonel was walking in his garden when he came face-to-face with a large Bengal tiger.
He turned and ran back to the bungalow. The tiger came after him, gathered itself to leap, slipped and fell,in a heap allowing the colonel to gain safety.
Somene said, "I always thought of Bengal tigers as being particularly sure-footed. What did it slip in".
The colonel replied, "Man, it is plain that you have never been chased by a Bengal tiger".

The lion tamer led his young apprentice into the cage. “The first thing to remember,” said the older man, “is that if a lion jumps at you, throw something at it.”
“And what do I do if there’s nothing to throw?”
The lion tamer said, “If a lion jumps at you __ there will be.”
