Magic Minute A Universal Angel
MAGIC MINUTE // “Ever been on the verge of your world crashing down around you when some Angel of The Universe appears and shields you from danger?
That happened to me in the form of big, lovable,Pancho the Kiwi.
We were on a rigorous training trip around Europe to become camping-tour leaders where no prisoners were taken!
Either you could hack the pace and humiliation, or you were kicked off the bus! They needed to know you could cope with any emergency.
I was fine with my public speaking and general knowledge, but calculating each country’s rate of exchange terrified me!
My debilitating fear of math was about to catch up with me!
In a quiet moment on the coach I poured all this out to Pancho and he said: “Don’t worry, I’m a science teacher and I’ll help you get through this.”
He listed some simple tips on a yellow life-saving card for me to reconcile each day’s different rates of exchange.
I cherished this little card for it gave me real hope!
Out of 29 tormented trainees 17 survived… Pancho, my Universal Angel and I, were two of them!
I’m Laurie Smale… Till my next Magic Minute. 🪄
