Title: Gold Medal
Post by: terrydj on August 10, 2012, 07:32:23 AM

Well I hate sport.
But the young bloke up the road in the same complex I live in that I see everyday looks like he just won a Gold at the Olympics in the rowing.
He's a plumber that busts his arse everyday on the job. His name is Jacob Clear :thumbsup

That's really great, that an ordinary bloke can put his mind to something and beat the world at it!
Truly life-affirming among all the bs that surrounds the Olympics.

That said, thank God we're ahead of New Zullnd and Kazakhstan- now that was scarey for a while!   :grin

Yeah just a bloke who lives in a unit at a former over 55 complex with his Work Ute parked out the front :thumb
Its a small complex where the majority of people are retired complete with the triple b-pass, and the heaps of medication, but I'm sure the walkers and canes are being polished up for the homecoming.
