A couple of days ago I received an email via Linkedin from a very old mate of mine, David Ball. We went to Sydney Grammar together and have know each other since we were 13 or so. I haven’t seen him in over a decade and as it turns out he is now based in Singapore with International SOS having worked in the region for many years. I could not reply to his email via LinkedIn so i went old skool and simply rang his office up in Singapore and within minutes we we were organizing a catch up at the Intercontinental where he was due to give  presentation at a business function.  A mere 24 hours later and we were sipping cold beer and catching up and it was just awesome to see my old mate. Cheers Sid !
