Publisher's Synopsis
Enjoy the stories of an enterprising man who took risks, rose to the challenges of very different careers -Customs Agent, Farmer, Business Consultant and Hospital Finance Manager. As well he renovated 3 derelict houses ranging in size from 9 squares (85 sq m) to 40 squares (380 sq m). Throughout all the challenges and disasters that occurred he persevered completing all that he took on.
Often the humorous side of what had happened only became obvious when telling the stories at Caravan Park Happy Hours. A man nearly fell off his chair laughing at the impact of Stilnox and alcohol being used together.
Why was the story of Richard falling down the hill so important he was told about it at work at Korumburra 25 km (15 miles) away?
Why does the last story end with almost the same quote to the title?
Why was the tractor in pieces over half a kilometre (500 yards) from where it was parked?
How do you get a job as Director of Finance of an 800 bed Nursing Home when you have been an accountant for less than one year?
What did Richard do to shut down the Melbourne Wharf?
Why did the Corolla come home from fishing with every panel dented?
Enjoy Richard's anecdotes just as these people have done.
