It Could Only Happen to Richard

By Mrs Elizabeth Ann Johnson

How an Australian man overcame the challenges and disasters in his life while pursuing three careers - as a Customs Agent, Farmer and Hospital Finance Director. Sometimes causing chaos that he had to spend much time fixing. At other times being confronted by chaos caused by others and working out a suitable solution.Enjoy the stories of an enterprising man who took risks, rose to the challenges of very different careers and renovated 3 derelict houses ranging in size from 9 squares (85 sq m) to 40 squares (380 sq m). Throughout all the challenges and disasters that occurred he persevered completing all that he took on.Often the humorous side of what had happened only became obvious when telling the stories at Caravan Park Happy Hours. A padre nearly fell off his chair laughing at the impact of Stilnox (a sleeping tablet) and alcohol being used together. Why was the story of Richard falling down the hill trying to train our sheep dog so important he was told about it at work 25 km (15 miles) away? Why does the last story end up with an almost identical quote to the title? Why was the tractor in pieces over half a kilometre (500 yards) from where it was parked? How do you get a job as Director of Finance of an 800 bed Nursing Home (over four Certified Practicing Accountants) when you have had an Accountancy Degree for less than twelve months? What did Richard do to shut down the Melbourne Wharf? Why did the Corolla wagon come home from fishing with every panel dented and the inside coated in fish scales?Enjoy Richard
