Kangaroo Dreaming
A wild leap of my life story into a period
beginning in the early 1980's, some 30 years later - which encompasses some
dramatic changes. These changes lead inevitably to my future association with
Aboriginal people and their culture. This is a brief (if I can control myself)
but important chunk. I am married, living back at Littlehampton, and have a
house, two children, and a mail round.

More Early Years
This period includes the final couple of years
living at Grange, my emergence from my wheel-bed to crutches, and my attendance
at a 'real' school for the first time in my life, in my tenth year. It then
covers our move back to Littlehampton, to the fifty acres called "Willow
Bank.'

The Early Years
This is the first in an on-going blog which will
seek to place on the record an occasional summary of my life, with photographs
where applicable or available. The blog will cover my early life, a long period
(four and a half years) in hospital, my emergence into the world from that
period, and my progression through life with its highs and lows, unique, and yet
a common journey to us all. It will cover the joys of marriage and starting a
family, and the darkness of losing them. It will include my growing interest in
indigenous culture and the culmination of that interest with my two years in a
central desert community. It will lead back to the now, with the interests,
skills and dreams which remain. It will hopefully deal honestly with my
shortcomings. (but not too much).
