This section contains a biography, arranged in seven year periods.
Here is an aerial photo of the American army buildings where I was born. They were repurposed as a public hospital.
A is the old hospital. B is the new under construction. The tamaki estuary is in behind.
Here is where we lived in Mount Eden, near Potters Park.
6 Manatu St.
My grandparents lived nearby in Valley Road and this was the house my mother grew up in. The back of the house was a yard for the family construction business, concreting, groundworks and tanks.
The house started as a villa, went bungalow, then got 1950's landscape windows and built in furniture.
