Episode 8: A cup of tea with Stephen D. Episode 8

In this double episode, I am concluding my conversation with my mother Sophie, who will be reflecting on 50 years of marriage whilst I am pouring the tea. Sophie will also tell us her memories of moving the family from the Riverina to the Northern Rivers of New South Wales and the loneliness in those initial first weeks and months having settled in Alstonville. In the second half of this podcast, and back my popular demand, we hear the story of Maryanne Harmer who I have now found out possesses a real talent for poetry. Maryanne will share with us her memoirs as I pour the earl grey.
