Is it possible to obtain an
Email contact for Susan? She was bridesmaid at a wedding in
Eastbourne, Wellington many years
ago. Her mother was very kind when
I arrived. She will surely remember my musical spirit. It was exciting to see she is writing
poetry with success and continuing
as a psychologist.

Hi jack again...I tried to check Karen's email address on-line...no luck and realise I can't leave comment on the blog because I don't have a google account (trying to keep expenses low as now retired clinical psychologist). have you got time to leave my email address (fitchett@ihug.co.nz)under that post of Karen's...if not thats ok.
regards,
sue
The above comment comes from Sue Fitchett, not from me - I'm just posting it for her.
I should just remark parenthetically, though, that Google accounts are free and cost nothing to maintain.
You don't need to have one to leave a comment, in any case.
