This was the era before telephones, television, laptops or iPads. We grew up when writing letters, listening to the radio, going to the theatre and reading books was very much in vogue. It was the days when Elvis and the Beatles were always singing on the radio. My Mother Thelma encouraged us to use our imagination and would regularly read to my brother and I. Grims Fairy tales and Enid Blyton stories were among my favourites but there were many others of which I have fond memories and can still be found in my book case today. I always enjoyed English and writing at school. I attended Henley High for a year before I changed to Thebarton Tech College. After a few years there I started a five year hairdressing apprenticeship. I attended trade school and eventually ran my own business at a place called Grange which was right neat the beach. In my twenties I started writing poems and short stories and have always enjoyed the process .Also attended art classes for about five years. Yoga is very much part of my life every day and for me the benefits are many. I live with my husband Gerry in our home in South Australia.ver menos
