    exactly. I'm the runt (bar one) of my pack, so just the Mrs an junior to look after...

    My wife would do alright on the life insurance, so if you don't hear from me, she's intercepted this thread and got some ideas!

    I'd like to think I'd give my life for close family & risk my life for anyone in danger, but until
    tested. . .

    Chap went surfing with his wife on northern new south wales' beaches this weekend.

    Seems a juvenile great white shark, only spanning 3 metres or so, took a bite out of her leg.

    Chap jumped off his surfboard, onto the shark's back and punched it repeatedly in the face until it scampered.

    My wife should have married him.

    **** that.

    Don't think a person can know until the moment is there but I think you'd risk your life for a hell of lot more than what you've listed. In the moment I can see you risking your life for complete strangers. You're a good man with Christian values.

    That's kind of you to say Bri, you know me quite well.

    Sadly there'd have to be a big risk to life these days. I took on a bunch of coked up Lincoln hooligans, last season, who invaded the beer garden where Sunderland families were drinking pre-match.

    They started ripping down flags and getting aggressive. I jumped the leader, Billy Oxby, who turned on a Sunderland lad. I ended up with a dislocated shoulder that still knacks.

    Some of the Sunderland people thought I'd started the trouble which was annoying. I'll try my best to keep out of things, from now on, unless things get really serious.
