It's seems a very long time since I first met you Christine, at the end of Archer Place, Carters Beach. I will never forget all the fun times that we had with you and your family during the holidays when we came to stay next door.
To Lisa my oldest friend, Justine, Tristan and their families, please know that my thoughts are with all of you.
