The last day of the Narrative Therapy conference in Liverpool. After listening to Vanessa Jackson talk about the histories of black people four of us decided we HAVE to visit the International Slave Museum before leaving Liverpool. We skipped two presentations and got into an Uber. So pleased I went. We were back for the joyous closing!!

Bill’s book Collaborative Therapy with Multi-Stressed Families served as wonderful inspiration to our work. I was lucky to spend a day with Bill and his family many years ago on their visit to SA. Sincere condolences to his family.

Yesterday was a day of re-membering my wonderful connections with colleagues from Norway that go back 17 years. Thanks for taking the time to visit me at home, Elin Bjøru and Sverre Jor. It was lovely to share lunch with you and to reflect on parts of my professional journey.

The house concert with Eugenie Grobler’s moving performance organized by Uyavula was an opportunity to celebrate the ripples that came frim the Norwegian’s visits. Thanks so much Adele Botha for remembering all the many years and many ways in which those ripples touched so many children and teachers. What a lovely evening of connection and thanksgiving.
