I just happened to be in the exact spot at the time someone needed help. On both cases no one else had known it happened. With the little girl, she was on her own in the pool and got into difficulties, and she was so terrified her parents would go mad with her we decided we wouldn't tell, as long as she didn't go in the pool on her own again.

With the teenage girl, it was late in the eve, and not many people about, just me and another person saw her. She was so embarassed and once again scared her parents would find out, that once we'd talked to her, and reasoned with her. She came to the decision she didn't want to do it anyways. So we just took her home and she was ok.

It tends to be quite often I get into these situations, somehow it just happens. Last winter I was travelling on a road at 1am, no other car, when BAM a car came wizzing from the other direction and crashed itself into the barrier.

I don't know why - but I seem to be around these things when they happen. I'd actually prefer not to be as I get pretty shaken up each time. I think alot of it is because I'm usually travelling home late in the eve or the early hours of the morning after gigs and sessions and well, that's when alot of these things happen.

Here's some more...
