Many years ago myself and the other half returned from a long hike to find the scheduled ferry across the estuary had decided to terminate hours early. It was a very long walk round. I enquired of a guy in a dinghy who was taking supplies to his boat. He said when he had finished that trip he would come back and take us across, which he duly did. It was a fair distance and not easy going against the tide and wind, and at the end I gratefully thanked him, and offered some cash for his fuel or a beer or two. He politely declined, and simply said: “Pass it on”. I have been “passing it on” ever since. It’s a great philosophy.
