I had travelled to Melbourne. My mum did not want to pick me up because I was arriving around midnight. I had contacted some people, but it was a big ask, so I tried to concentrate on the ones I knew who would think that midnight was a reasonable hour. One thing led to another, and to my surprise, Kirsten agreed to come all the way to Melbourne Airport and pick me up, all the way from Monbulk.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">I had not seen Kirsten for many years and it was really through Rodney and facebook that we were back in touch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/8478506534\/in\/photostream\/lightbox\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19370 alignleft\" alt=\"Monbulk 2010\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/2010-05-27-at-14-38-40.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a> I stayed in\u00a0Monbulk\u00a0for the evening, sleeping in the spare room and the next day I spent at their place. I really did not know anything about her family&#8217;s situation at the time but we instantly hit off, like we always had in the past. Kirsten in the only person who I have always been in love with from the moment that we met. which was about 1984 in Best Street, North Fitzroy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">I met her two children, Krysta and Teresa. Krysta and I instantly worked together. I do remember Andrew being there that night and in the morning he went to work.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/8477418815\/in\/photostream\/lightbox\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19369 alignright\" alt=\"Monbulk 2010\" src=\"http:\/\/yewenyi.net\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/2010-05-27-at-15-45-15.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>We played with the chickens, I avoided the cats as best I could and we took the dogs (Brutus and Dusty) for a walk and saw a rainbow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">We also went for a drive to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/4648802317\/in\/datetaken\/lightbox\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Springvale<\/a> to pick up some work for Andrew&#8217;s Shade Cloth Business.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Sadly, I do not seem to have taken any photos fo Kirsten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Little did I realise what would come of this.
