Son in POW camp-and got a flogging by Japs.

Not sure when the movie 'The Railway Man' is released,think its just after Xmas.They just released the trailer.

Joel sent through a couple of frames from where he appeared in trailer.He ended up been selected to work just behind the main actor when doing scenes in rainforest (lamington Nt park) in July last year-it was freezing he said.The men in cages in railway carriages was done at QR workshops also last July,at 4 am in the morning-with not much on-and then the Japs gave them a canning-full on stuff too.

Such a joke,the little bugger said he had to carry railway sleepers,and swing sledge hammer-pitty he could do that when we doing fencing on the property-be the first time he picked up a sledge hammer.Hope he learnt something about history though.

DUE OUT BOXING DAY!
