I thought that April Fool's Day was appropriate -- so I accepted.Weena had been talking to her father nearly every day as his retirement neared. The d...tes he'd given us appeared to be firm, so Friday the 11th — the day after tomorrow -- would be his last working day. He'd "knock off" after lunch and hoped to be on his way to Kal via Leonora before three. Including a stop in Laverton, that should get him into town by six or so. Weena had told him that we'd be in the Alice till Sunday the 20th,. ’ ‘So what’s the word?’ Phil smiled, and leaned closer to whisper in my ear.

This time dinner and maybe we’ll enjoy. This unit has a very nice en suite, Eric. How about you -- do you need to get up?”“I’m good for the time being.” Helen rolled again onto her side facing away.I snuggled against her, slipped my arm around her waist and she put her hand on mine. “Any thoughts about last night?” I asked. “Any regrets?”“No regrets. Regrets are the furthest from my mind. It was wonderful ... you were wonderful, Eric. You have such a nice touch and your pacing was perfect. It must’ve been the combination of the drink.
