[Jon Jolly]

Dr Jon Jolly was in the CMO's office, preparing to go out on shore leave, when a communication from Earth came in for him. It was an old friend and colleague from Australia.

"Jon its so good to see you again, how are you?" Dr Gladstone asked.

"Henry I'm well and you, are you well, long time no see?" Jon replied with a joyous smile.

They spoke of old times together as your doctor in the out-back for some minutes until Henry Gladestone came to the reason for his out of the blue call.

"Jon we need you back in Australia. I have a position open for training graduates in rural and out-back medicine. Your the first and only one I could think of that would be perfect for the job. Will you come back, please?"

Jon was shocked, overwhelm even, and for a few second could speak.

"I will give it some serious thought Henry, I will contact you tomorrow with my answer. Let me sleep on it."

==The Following Day, late in the evening ==

Jon put a call through to Dr Henry Gladstone in Adelaide South Australia.

"Henry, Jon Jolly!"

'Yes, Jon," Henry immediately replied, "I've been expecting your call. I hope your answer is good news."

Yes Henry, good news, I accept your offer. It will take me more that week to get back to earth, but I am coming back to Australia. I've missed the hot dusty plains and the rugged mountain ranges."

The next day he made an appointment to meet with Captain Field and advise her of his decision to leave, to take up the training post in Australia, Earth.
