Collected tickets, swept platforms, cleaned toilets, announced trains over the intercom. I loved it but my parents thought it was beneath me so I went to uni.

It was just your basic Gumtree scam. I sent him money for some speakers, they never arrived and I never heard from him again.
But it was $1,100, so you could understand why I'd like to say "hello"

It's amazing when you have those moments, something transcends our conscious thought.

Going into The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at the Aust War Memorial I got goose bumps the second I walked in and tears started rolling down my cheeks. Buggered if I could control it but I've never felt that since though I imagine I would feel similar if I went to any of the war cemetaries in Europe, Gallipoli etc.

I can only imagine. I'd love to do that one day.

Peter Fitzsimmons was blown away by the bloke. The whole room went eerily quiet and people literally gasped. As I said it was unbelievable

You trying to trigger me mate?!?! :p

To answer truthfully, I think it was a bit of delusion mixed with disappointment. He had a horrible run of injuries and never really met his full potential (at test cricket). I remember there being a shitload of unlucky ones where the umpire triggering him despite it hitting the top corner of leg stump. Also, has to be asked, what were the blokes at the other end telling him when they have the quick conference on whether to challenge or not?

Averages 41 opening the bat at test level, wouldn't mind that atm
