Diabetes?
Last weekend we went up to Wisemans Ferry, north of Sydney, to join our running club friends for the AGPU. Anna had been quite busy in the days running up to the event finalising some designs for the various goodies that we each received (a cooler bag and bottle opener), and has now completed her tour of duty on committee. However, I was asked (by someone who's obviously never seen my photos) to take on the role of Hash Flash for the coming year, which means I'm responsible for taking a few photos at each week's run.
Most people were staying in some rustic cabins at the camp and one of our party, Pearl, was feeling unwell on Saturday and thought that his diabetes was flaring up. He went to the hospital and was found to be OK, but the blood test that they took indicated that he'd been bitten by a funnel-web spider. Fortunately the bite wasn't too bad, so there was no need to apply the anti-venom and he was discharged without too much fuss.
Finally, I completed my time with Objective on Thursday, and will be starting a new role next week in Pyrmont; so I still get to take the ferry to work.
