Just as I was walking out of the door....
Ring, ring, ring ring........... (well no it's a mobile, so The Entertainer plays)
"Hello"
"Yes, I'm Lynda Turk."
"No, I'm in Perth.....it's school holidays."
strained laughter........then
"If you take them away, I will simply leave, resign."
"Yes, I do have a lot on my mind, and it probably isn't a good time to call."
and so the conversation ended.
The caller was a lady from "Grow", that is the government department that supplies furniture for Education Department employees. She had phoned to inform me the furniture, (fridge and washer) they had loaned to me while I am in Kal. would be picked up within the month.
So that was another thing for me to sort out while I'm here. I am really beginning to wonder about this holiday thing.

This place marks
a superb spot,
where everyone expects
me to reside,
to germinate undisturbed,
dispassionate, deep.
They do not know
it is an empty...
