Great pics aust10n - I have some pictures of Gallipoli on a disc somewhere, I'll try and post them.

Nice. I've never seen that picture before.
He put out a autobiography here recently. I want to pick it up. Seems like it may be a good read.

I thoroughly enjoyed his book. He come's across as being so dedicated, even-handed and humble.
