My goodness, Jude, you had some pain there. These things all leave their mark, don¡¯t they? Then, you are just left to live with them as best you can. I sometimes wish I were not so good at remembering stuff. Should be glad, though, that I do still have a good memory!
Best,
Susan

I was dragged to Australia on forged papers. My own father refused to sign documents for me to leave the country. My late stepfather who had been POW of Germans 4 years in Thorn Poland Stalag XXA - knew a bit about forgery and spent some hours forging my Dad¡¯s signature.
I did get the chance in a few moments to warn my Dad of the dastardly plot to take me to Australia but in that instant he didn¡¯t believe me and said it was impossible because he hadn¡¯t signed.?
Headmistress and my teacher at Earlsfield school had my mother and stepfather in to try the dissuade them from moving me - I was top of the school and they had a fast track edu planned for me, but the no avail.?
Life was very difficult for me in Australia in the early days. My mother had a cruel streak. When I was early 30¡¯s I made a search with Red Cross and found my father again and my husband and I got on a plane together to go see him in Ramsgate. I hoped it was closure of a kind for him. You come to realise though you can¡¯t put that great gap of time back.?
I guess at no time the British gov or Aust government actually check with my father that he actually signed and it was authentic, and as the man had had a breakdown over losing his marriage he was in no condition to action.

Life has some twists for some of us.?

?No, I got a chap in Bournemouth to swap it for me ¨C a very good job. ?I have swapped a HD, but it was on an iMac with magnetic closures, not glue.

That picture business is a bit annoying. ?Have you run Onyx to clean the computer up?

Wow, Chris - you swapped your iMac¡¯s HD? Did you do that yourself? ?We¡¯ve heard that my 27in iMac is repairable after all, so we¡¯re getting it done; you can¡¯t have too many Macs, I feel! :D?

I am relieved to hear that you¡¯re enjoying Ventura; I¡¯m still unsure. ?One trick I haven¡¯t mastered is getting it to accept and keep one of my photos as its wallpaper; it keeps having to be reinstated each time I log on. I have created a new file under the Wallpaper heading, as they tell you, but it doesn¡¯t believe me!
