On another sad note today. Bedford Tim (as he is known as on this site) recieved sad news mid morning that his nephew had been killed in a shark attack. Peter who is Tims nephew was only 16 and because the teachers were having stop work meeting, so Peter and his mate went for a body board surf at the beach near where he lived to fill in time while the teachers were not working. Tim was quite close to his nephew. Peter was the youngest son of Tim's sister.

Buy the sound of it a Bull Shark got at him and he bled to death before he could get to hospital.

I am only going by what I heard on the T.V. news tonight so it was a very sad day at the workshop today.

Our condolences go to the family. John
