Muse: OPEN HOUSE: Margaret Mahy, The…, in reply to
Marg had a sort of intelligent kindness- not soft or sentimental, but very deep, and perceptive- and now I keep seeing that in other people, and it’s very moving.
Rob, what a wonderful tribute, and thank you for telling us. Intelligently kind is exactly what I would have wanted MM to be had I known her. Her magical weavings have enriched my and my children's lives. Arohanui to your family from my family.

will i see you on Sunday at the implosion? Hope so. Start 8 am weather depending.
Oh yes. The males of the household are planning a big blokes' breakfast then to roar off to town in a large 4WD (they'll have to make do with the people mover) in time for the pyrotechnics. (At a funeral today, an unscientific survey of my cuzzies showed an unhealthy enthusiasm among most males present for explosions and the intention to go along; so I pick a big crowd in spite of the early hour.)

Sad. Wonderful writer. A Summery Saturday Morning is my favourite: from here, of here, and resonates everywhere it is read before bed.
