Kel kindly sent me this utube link.

It brought a tear to the eyes of even this tough old Coot.
Thank You Kel :good:

We had the minutes silence at work today. It was great to see all of the people in the hospital foyer stand still and catch a breath to remember those who have fallen.

hospitals are funky places to hang around in Kel - relax and meditate when you're there flat on your back (improves outcomes)
friendly people at hospitals, in fact sometimes they are very up close and personal (as in your case)
I'm even luckier as I have been paid to hang around them for the past 23 years! Discount tucker at the cafeteria too. Those days are almost gone in workplaces as they 'privatise' the canteens.

long live the public hospital system as I think it is well and truly under threat with this government

I was at a memorial service at Narooma.

Small but moving.
