DSC01994e

            I first met Monique Fischer in the mid-70's in Pretoria, South Africa when I was at Mount Edmund, CBC and she was at Girls High. Over the course of the next decade our social circles blended, and her parents - Klaus and Pat (a.k.a. "Ma Vis") - played an important part in my life during the traumatic military years when I was a very reluctant conscript in the South African Defence Force.  We drifted apart in the late-80's but Monique and her brother Kim both now live in the UK, as do I.  Ironically we have not yet managed to see each other in England, but on April 10, 2010 Monique and I got together at her parent's place in Lynnwood Manor, Pretoria, just around the corner from my mom's. It was wonderful to see them again after more than two decades, and it's definitely something we need to repeat!
