‘Now the first day is going to be a bit of a bummer. We’ve got five hours hard slog, just about all up-hill, through the bush. This rain is only g...oing to get heavier, so the only views you are going to get are of the backside of the person in front of you. We’re all going to get very wet, very muddy and very tired. ‘But the wise Maori tell me the weather will be perfect for the other four days.’ ‘Is that some tribal elder who has centuries of folklore to guide him about the weather?’ asked. My inexperience may have led me to be a tad unrealistic. Jeff drove up on Saturday morning. When I heard his car I went to the door to greet him. After a kiss appropriate to our lengthy, three-day, separation he took my hand and headed for the bedroom. I was too excited about my preparation and led him to the kitchen to show him what I had done. He looked it over and told me it was wonderful and how easy I had made things for both of us. He gave me a powerful hug. ‘You are an amazing woman,’ he. ?The Child /Mother was Ingrid, her father was an Officer? but the mother an untermenschen, they had divorced as required by the army, but the mother tried to live as a bourgeoisie instead of continuing to live with the former husband as a servant as many had done. It seemed Ingrid had given comfort, albeit unwillingly, to a Soldier on leave from the eastern front.?I sought out Jo our surgeon, "You know," I said "We had a foal at home, she was just like that pregnant one, Innocent, I rather. She told me she was an aspirant actress and looking for a part in a film. She even asked me to speak to my friend to get her a part. Anyway we chatted for a while when I became bold and placed my hand on her leg. She did not object and even allowed me to move my hand up higher on her thigh. I then reach over and gave her a kiss on her cheek. She smiled and told me that I was naughty. I explained to her that with such a beautiful girl next to me I cant help myself. I then kissed her on her lips.
