When Frank came home and said John
Brack's agreed to do your portrait I was

00:00:16.309 --> 00:00:21.590
'oh, what am I going to look like...' When i
look at my portrait I see somebody who

00:00:21.590 --> 00:00:27.110
likes fashion, that dress was a gorgeous
dress, sadly the moths got to it, and the

00:00:27.110 --> 00:00:31.910
jewelry is attractive, and I see
me and it is me I'm a bossy lady and I

00:00:31.910 --> 00:00:37.100
look like a bossy lady. I'm always
angry about something or upset about

00:00:37.100 --> 00:00:41.420
something people ask me about how many
letters I've written and I'm incredibly

00:00:41.420 --> 00:00:46.820
famous for my letter writing. When you
write one every day, it's a lot. Well I

00:00:46.820 --> 00:00:50.930
wrote one this week about the crossword
because he had a stupid word in it that

00:00:50.930 --> 00:00:54.890
I didn't agree with and I couldn't find
it in my dictionary so that moved me to

00:00:54.890 --> 00:00:58.969
write a letter. Not only that it
moved me to start tearing the Herald up

00:00:58.969 --> 00:01:03.890
into little strips and putting the
strips in my mulch heap because I needed

00:01:03.890 --> 00:01:12.200
some dry matter and it's perfect! Gave me such pleasure. I had it 3ft high! I don't really

00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:18.110
think that I had much particular purpose
in life except to have fun and I suppose

00:01:18.110 --> 00:01:22.880
it's not very good as it's rather selfish but
I like other people to have fun at the

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:28.910
same time. Frank my husband said, always, you can do anything if you really want

00:01:28.910 --> 00:01:36.649
now that to me is a purpose. I started
work when I was 47 and I had well a

00:01:36.649 --> 00:01:41.119
brilliant career I'm very proud of being
a battler for Kelly's bush and part of

00:01:41.119 --> 00:01:46.459
the green ban. I'm proud of being a
battler for mammography and being part of

00:01:46.459 --> 00:01:52.450
the national breast cancer screening
program and that to me is my legacy
