If I can "cross- contaminate" this tread with another, this is the sort of action that does deserve an honour.

A collective "Thanks" for all your kind words, its nice to know we still hold values!

When my brother was climbing out of the river he said there were chavs standing nearby and they said "I wouldn't jump in to save me mother never mind someone I didn't know".

My brothers response to them "- thats the difference between you and me".

Well done to him.......he then could have done us all a favour and chucked the chavs in.......Oh no polluting a public waterway is a crime.
He deserves a lot of credit and shows there is still hope
