I mentioned in the last post that Bill & I were married in June, 1955. I think I mentioned earlier that I had first seen Bill back when we were living in Petrie and I was travelling to school by train. Bill and his brothers used to board the train at Bald Hills which is on the same train line as Petrie. Like any teenager I was aware of any other schoolkids on the train. However it was not until 1948 or 1949 when we moved to Bald Hills that I actually met the family. Our home at Bald Hills was in the front corner of a neighbouring farm. Bill and his brothers knew these people and we eventually met through them.
My memories of the following years are a bit vague but I know that there was a little group of us who went for picnics etc. I dont remember when Bill & I started going out together but here are a couple of photos taken at Balls. One is a University Commem Ball and I think the earlier one may have been my school's Old Girls Ball. Somewhere I have a group photos which shows us at Bill's Main Roads Ball. I am in the process of clearing out drawers and cupboards and seem to be making myself more confused than ever as to where things are!.
