Wendy

Wendy was my best friend at high school

We visited each other’s homes

I met her dad Lloyd and mum …

She had three older siblings

Two sisters and a brother

We used to spend our weekends

At my house in Kingston-on-Murray

Or hers in Loxton North

My dad was always full of fun

He always called her Windy

She didn’t mind! She was cool!

Together we tweezed our eyebrows

We shaved our legs; did each other’s hair

We did homework together

We both joined the Library Committee

We both were in the same classes

Until Wendy did the typing course!

We got married and met up now and then

Showing off our kids to each other

We still keep in touch

Though many years have passed

She’ll always be my best friend Wendy!
