I went for a walk today - a nice long walk, through some of the
area I grew up in. I felt myself drawn to a memorial to a girl I
knew who was murdered a little over ten years ago. And seeing I was
then in that area, I decided to walk past the school she attended -
which was the same school I attended in 1987 when I was 12 years
old and in 'Year 7' of school. I generally refer to it as the
school from hell  <snip>

Well done Shaun! revisiting the site of past injuries requires a special
kind of braveness. I'm glad this visit has such a good outcome for you. I
wish I could also hope that such experiences would never happen to another
child .. Well I can hope.

storm *waves* to the other rehabbers on the list, currently in care, 3 grey
headed flying foxes (10 weeks, 7 weeks and 6 weeks), 2 brushtail possums and
never enough rainbow lorikeets plus the usual array of domestics
