Thanks guys, just rocked in, knocked the top off a cold one and fired up the puter.
Little bit knackered, been a long ' weekend '.
Just spotted the interview on the late GWN.
Well I must say I've been taken for a mug. That interview took more than 3/4s of an hour and has been edited and manipulated to a 60 sec slot which left me looking like an idiot.
That sheila had all the information in her hand and yet made up so much bullshyte for the camera.
How those people sleep at night I'll never know.
Its a long story which I hope to tell in the next day or two when Im a little better for wear an' tear.
Cheers......Lionel.

Hi Lionel,
Don't worry too much about the media, anyone who has ever known anything about a story know just how much the media twist it to "give it an angle' or sensationalise it. Just good to see all is
well.
Cheers

Glad to here your safe and
well Lionel, and really peed off that I won't be able to be on the
Nannup trip. By then the story will have become folk lore.
WRT the media I get interviewed a couple of times a year and invarably what you say isn't what is recorded. Just chalk it up as one of life's experiences.
