Oh Sue ! Max ! Neil and I were talking about coming over to Wanganui to see you both in about 10 days time .... ! As you will be aware Max, Neil and I met Sue [ and Ian] when we were in the UK with our then small daughter, we were on a 3 year working holiday ...and had popped into NZ House in London to ask if there was anyone who wanted to come with us to the Royal Garden Party. They did, and a pretty much life long friendship was formed. We met you a couple years later here in NZ and you also became a friend. Lost contact the past 15 years or so but still talked about you both ... DON'T lose touch with us again !!! Our love and thoughts are with you honey - this has really shocked us. Much love, Lorraine and Neil
