A smashing time!

p. 66 · Read in the full issue

This is globe-trotting Peter Fisher, an islands agent, who, when he’s not making his rounds in almost every part of the world, sits at his desk in Sydney. Recently, Peter went to see

two bone special ists, one in Swit zerland and the other in Nairobi for a check-up.

But, why two and in such far flung places? It’s all because Peter had a smashing time twice while on his rounds. In Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) he fell

in the street and broke a hip. He was airfreighted to Nairobi for treat ment. Then, after he’d recovered, he was once more on his rounds; this time in Switzerland.

He slipped on some ice and broke his arm.
