    Why didn't you let him wait until he was in total panic mode with a wet bum and full underpants before pulling him out.

    Cheapskate!! Although it may have been all he had on him? But then wouldn't you think to get your rescuer's address so you could send an appropriate thank-you?

    $15?

    Even if that is all he had on him he could at least have made arrangements to get a case of two of beers to you.

    A couple of weeks ago the missus got her car broken into and we gave a case of beer to the guy who'd noticed just for calling the police (and then doing the detective work to find a number to contact us directly).

    Threatening to buy awful beer is not really the way to encourage people to help you! Beach looks very familiar where was it?

    Ah relatively close then I'm near Binningup, Although I must confess I've had some conversations with some skeptical QLD types about where you drive on the beach, stay the hell away from the water line doesn't compute with their way of thinking.

    You should have told him that you had flattened your batteries the previous night, and were waiting for the solar panel to charge them back up, then sat there and watched the entertainment. You could have then videoed it and had an instant hit on you tube...

    You're a MEAN, MEAN MAN , or is that coming from the 22years of experience???

    Dropped of a nice bottle of scotch to the bloke who found my defer after it was stolen last month. He was well pleased.

    Cheers, Jurgens.
