Meet the Resident Where did you grow up? I grew up in Adelaide then moved to Broken hill. While my dad was in Army. Geoff
Childhood Memories . I had 4 brothers and 2 sisters. We use to play cricket and football in the street with the other kids in the street. Work : My first job was a telegram delivery boy at 14. I then went on to become a carpenter’s apprentice where I worked for a builder and by myself. Later I joined the police force for 18years until I got injured while doing traffic control and had to retire. Something I have learned that I would like to share with others is: Live and be happy for what you have. Songs that have made a impact on you? My wife and I use to dance so a lot of songs mean a lot to me. What has been the biggest change in the world in your lifetime? Technology would have to have been the biggest change as I use to deliver the Telegram when I was a kid now they are all online. My favourite place that I have travelled is the Northern Territory. I really love the Territory. What is something that always makes you Smile? Being around Happy people. What is your proudest achievement? I represented Australia in Rifle shooting. I travelled to New Zealand, Scotland, Canada and America to represent Australia.
