Modelling an @barbour ensemble in British Army camouflage pattern, is a young Aussie officer cadet (me 😬) serving on exchange with the @newzealandarmy circa 1986, with a broken wing and hat hair! 😂 A bit of fun from memory lane and a shout out to all the men and women I had the great privilege to serve with in NZ. #onward #newzealand #kiwi #barbour #barbourjacket #barbourjackets

As promised, here are some pics from last night’s Q&A session with Grant Edwards. Grant is a recently retired Australian Federal Police Commander and elite athlete. His debut book ‘The Strong Man’ is a must read for anyone interested in autobiographies about real people (not celebrities) who have lived a life far beyond the realities of normal life. Although, Grant would be the first to say ‘Define normal!’ I was very fortunate to be asked to facilitate the Q&A with Grant and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you to everyone involved and all those who came along, but especially Grant, Taryn, Melanie @goawayimreading and, of course, Jo from @novellafinebooks #police #ptsd #service #thinblueline #lawenforcement #militaryservice #military #paratrooper @ausfedpolice @simonandschusterau @simonandschuster
Me and my boy at the Q&A with Grant Edwards this evening in Sydney. We’ve just arrived home but I’ll post some pics from the event tomorrow. Good night all!
