Before putting on Marketplace, here's a chance for members to pick up a mobility scooter at a good price. The guys in the engineering shed have checked this out and put two new batteries ($300) in Seems to run well. $650 or make a serious offer before the public does.

Sanduk Ruit is the son of a salt trader from a Himalayan village with no school. He became an eye surgeon, and in the 1980s he developed a sutureless small-incision cataract technique fast and safe enough to be done without a hospital.

Then he hit the wall that stops most good ideas in poor countries. The artificial lens cost about a hundred dollars.

So he built a factory in Kathmandu. It now turns out more than 350,000 lenses a year at roughly three dollars each.

He runs eye camps in tents, monasteries and schoolhouses across Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, Mongolia, North Korea and Ethiopia. People arrive blind. The surgery takes minutes. The bandages come off the next morning and they can see.

His career total is put at more than 130,000 operations, most of them free.

Nepal's rate of preventable blindness fell by close to half over the span of his work, and his technique, once other surgeons adopted it, has been credited with enabling tens of millions of cataract operations worldwide.

He is still operating.

And he now says the thing that matters most is not the number. It is the more than 650 surgeons he has trained, who will keep doing it in rooms he will never stand in.

Before I put this out to the general public, here's a chance to buy a mobility scooter at a bargain price. The guys in the engineering workshop have refurbished this and replaced the batteries ($150). There are signs of wear and tear and a few scratches but generally in an acceptable condition. We are asking $350 and if you check elsewhere that is a very reasonable price.

Here's a mobility scooter at a Knock-down price before I put it up for the general public. It's been checked over by the boys in the engineering workshop and had new batteries ($150) put in. A few scratches here and there but generally OK. If you check, these are on sale elsewhere for far more than the $350 we are asking for this.

On 18 August each year, we commemorate Vietnam Veterans' Day on the anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan in 1966. We remember the sacrifices of those who died and say thank you to almost 60,000 Australians who served during the 10 years of our involvement in the Vietnam War. This year was the 60th Anniversary and it was marked by a visit by members of Drouin RSL to Drouin men’s Shed. Shed members organised sausages, eggs and bacon for the visitors and our members. It was a great opportunity for us to remember the sacrifices made by the men and women who have served in our Armed Forces. If you want further info on our local branch of the RSL check out:
