344a. & 345. Memory mixed-up, confused … between the tennis club, the hall, the vines – and a new world unfolding.

344a.

No wonder no photos

D’artagnan: wrong venue!

… the Tennis Club hosts Nepean High’s farewell!!

Oh! Confusion.

Memory apologises

(and thanks Ruth, for the elbow in the ribs)

****

345.

Penrith HS has “farewell” in their hall.

No mistake!

Sadly, I can’t attend (officially)

I’m there

After,

For after-party

With many old friends & new love.

Sciv’s vineyard, Orchard Hills. (Right?)*

Wild night consuming, ingesting

Rolling ‘n’ tumbling around

Life’s beginnings & endings.

Sun rises

Over vines,

Strewn with evidence of good times.

*No, wrong again! Yes Orchard Hills is right but the event was a few streets away at a different property.

Orchard Hills circa 1973 – at the party the vines were leafy and fruity
