Save somebodies life

I went to the pub after work yesterday and between the jigs and the reels Kevin ended up telling us about a recent incident in which he claimed to have saved a girls life. The short version is that he was outside an appartment in the Christchurch area of Dublin having a cigarette. It was the early hours of the morning and as he was standing there, minding his own business a screaming girl ran by being chased by a junkie with a breadknife. The girl ran to him for help and he ended up scuffling with the knife man. As he was telling us this he was at great pains to let us know that he wasnt being brave, he just got in the way. But being involved he ended up putting his foot into the junkie’s chest and pushing him away. The junkie flew backwards and straight through the window of a chinese restaraunt.
I asked him how that all went down with the cops, but apparently he and the girl ran away. Apparently, and this is the really bizarre bit, it turned put that they knew each other through a mutual friend. Small world.

Cant think of anything more worthwhile than this. Of course you cant go out planning to save someones life. Unless you happen to be Superman. Its worth bearing in mind though. Just in case the moment arrives.
