Living next door to Alana.Brisbane is sunny and warm, remarkably so for July. Catching up with Alana is splendid fun. She is relatively subdued due to a hypothalmic condition which is being treated with medicine and diet, but it's amazing how much of the familiar spirit and energy she still projects. Trying to recall the last time we had seen each other, I reminded her we were at the same table at her 1985 High School Formal, but she had a photo of us (and Michael) at a party in 1989 so she won.
Next week, in contrast to reviving lovely memories, it's time to fill a skip with the detritus of the past seven years.
