We all agreed to pose in the same position, facing right. The fourth snap shows my anarchic brother-in-law, Timo. I love him. He makes me laugh.

This is my cousin Rachel, from Hamilton, New Zealand. She was visiting Melbourne at the same time as her mum, who was here for a conference of The Australian String Teachers Association, which my mum was organising. Rachel and I were volunteers at the event.  We took this photo on our way to the conference venue in North Melbourne.

Lost Fun Zone, who has a great Berlin based photography blog called

.documenting.the.obvious

has helped me out by telling me of the mistake I made in naming the Danish percussion duo I saw on this evening in June, 1998. It was the Safri Duo not the Safari Duo.

Thanks Mister Zone from Berlin. I hate making mistakes and appreciate being picked up on them when I do.

February 1998, Southland Shopping Centre, Melbourne

Here is my sister Sue, who now lives in Dublin, and me, after a shopping trip to get our nails done and buy cosmetics. Manicures have been very rare in my life, so I am glad I have one commemorated!

This is another Polaroid format photobooth photo. I haven’t seen one of these booths in over 10 years. The little image on the bottom of the Polaroid is from another strip of photobooth stickers from a different outing. I think Sue kept the rest.

This is another photo in my series of photobooth photos that began in 1973 and continues to this day. This is me with Holly. Holly was a lovely friend with whom I lost touch. I miss her.

22 January 1998, Chadstone Shopping Centre, Melbourne

A quick strip of photobooth photos after a trip to the cinema to see The Spice Girls‘ movie Spice World. I guess it was the only film we could all agree to see, as I was never a fan of that group.

This strip was taken on the way to see a movie in Melbourne’s city centre. It was The Devil’s Advocate with Al Pacino. I hated it.
