Wow, I just saw that the Bondi hero has received $2.5 million from GoFundMe. That's rather bloody amazing. Really happy for the bloke.

Also the other day I said that he didn't seem to be a person that had been trained for action, I am wrong as he has been a Policeman ( I think , or was it army ? ) So yeah, my mistake. Goes to show we shouldn't assume or judge.

Speaking of money, we had a Lotto syndicate at work and we won a few thousand between 15 of us. Just over $300 each so that's a nice start to the day. Cheers.

Edit. That was $330 between the fifteen of us.

That is our share out of a larger syndicate. Oops.

I thought he was a fruit shop owner, and never touched a gun?

Yeah I'm not sure. Well obviously.
