Not much of a ninja if you didn't catch the guys

Id just finished two and a half hours for training, and had my gear with me (Bokken, Bo, Han Bo) so running after them wasn't looking too attractive. To be honest, we were just happy the guy wasn't badly hurt.
What I cant believe is the media attention its getting.

Its because you were dressed as ninjas.
If you were just a bunch of dudes in regular clothing standing at a bus stop that came to help, it wouldn't even make the paper.
Good stuff though man

That's a funny story. Some of the extra humor comes from the fact that it wasn't a case of people hearing a dispute from outside their dojo, literally someone was "hiding in shadows" outside, for what reason... well, only the ninjas know, and if they told you, they'd have to kill you.
Good samaritan'ing, good story.

Fair warning, Dobs...my girl was asked IC about Ward the other day, and I couldn't for the life of me remember Ward Halliams' name
.
You need to get back IG on occasion, Ward deserves to be remembered better

Hah! That was you, Dobs? I said to my flatmate that I knew someone doing ninjitsu in Sydney when we saw that on TV. Never imagined it would have been you there. Certainly made head-line news here.

"The ninjas gave chase, but the men escaped" What the?
Chain knives, ninja stars, darts? C'mon guys, this is just not good enough. Next time we expect to see them hanging from a lamp post by the testicles when the police arrive!

Thats awesome mate. I read that article some time back in half amusement, half amazement.
Btw, I will be moving up to Sydney in a couple of months I think. We should catch up.

Time it for Sept or so and I might head over there as well. Wanting to get over to Melbourne at some stage this year, so can combined the trips.
Should seriously open up another thread. Would be good to catch up with some people again.
