Nadia this is a very generous contribution to the history of significant people in Australia back then. Such objectivity and passion. Thank you for both the details and the style.
Yes, I was about to say something similar, but as usual, Robyn beat me to it you are such a wonderful writer, Nadia, that sometimes I feel as though I should do a writing course under your tutelage. Mark Aarons xxx

Thanks, Glenda. Martin himself was a very generous person, as well as a significant one.
Nadia ... what a beautiful memory
I am almost in tears as I read your writing about Martin

Those were the days my friends
