I went down to the top car park after hearing about it on the radio, the rumour mill was working overtime with multiple people telling me a Great White took him and they haven't found the body yet.
It's good to hear recent reports that he is in a stable condition in hospital.
The beaches are closed again today, although with bloody good surf this morning a lot of people had ignored it.
a couple of guys that kite & surf helped him in at the time one paddled straight out to help him... made sure he was on a wave and then got the next wave ... well done Nathen and big Tone and the others you deserve a farrking medal ,and yes seen Petes van down there earlier as two of my sons Brodie and Jai were out there surfing the same bank 2hrs before hand ...hang in there Lenny heard its big bite (local tattooist) at Charlestown... still choppers and news people everywhere down here at the moment ...
Lenny is a great bloke, could have been any of us,
My best wishes to you Glen, hope you recover fully asap.
I'm not intending to make light of the situation, but here are some perspective giving thoughts;

my brother from Sydney called me and told me .I asked him if he had any plans to drive his car any time soon reminding him that thousands are killed on the roads every year .nothing like a shark attack on a slow news day![]()
Get well soon Lenny .lucky boy
