  I'd forgotten about the flower guy. I never thought of him as a boy, perhaps because I was so young the last time I saw him. He always seemed old to me. Or are we (as unlikely as it seems) talking about different people? He couldn't walk, yes?

  On reflection, "flower guy" is more appropriate. I remember him being youngish, but let's not diminish him.

  From memory he seemed to get along with some difficulty on those crutches-cum-canes that fit around the forearm.

  The way "flower boy" seemed to be used back then seemed kind of a play on flower child, i.e. a hippy, only not what you'd expect.

  Thank you Lilith.

  I’m so grateful to Russell and all my supporters.

  Life is a lot better now.

  People have asked how I stayed motivated and focused while completing study at Auckland University of Technology.

  But the staff and faculty at AUT have been incredible.

  But that’s for another blog.

  Thanks for the support Jackie.

  I don't care what people think of me.

  Unless they think I am fabulous.

  Then I totally agree.
