Alma, who was kind to a little girl when no one else was

And Number 1 Douglas Street, St Kilda, a place of:

Afternoon teas in bone china cups and saucers
Grandad’s stories
Perfect vegetable soup and cheese scones
Jazz records and radio shows
Nana’s endless photos and memories in boxes and drawers and bags
A garage with bags of pretty clothes worn once forty years ago and then not again in case they were spoiled
Supreme household fuss -supremely unfussy love
Potplants
Radishes
A smuggled Apricot vine
Constancy
