Cronulla Aftermath



It's too easy to be negative and critical, we see it everywhere including elsewhere in this blog.

Today I have been impressed by the front page article in, of all places, the tabloid Daily Telegraph, on the progress Cronulla and the surf club in particular, have made since last December's riots. Significantly, the surf club has recruited and trained life guards of Middle Eastern background.

Coincidentally, few hours later, I heard on the radio an interview of a Lebanese lady regarding a service in memory of lives lost and sufferings of the Lebanese people in the recent war. The lady organiser commented that they have received numerous messages of condolence including, she pointedly added, one from the Cronulla Surf Club.

Goodonya!

The sort of thing that makes John Howard cringe. No votes in that story! Kay
