How beautiful, and intriguing is this inscription in a little French-English dictionary I found for $2 in a Toorak op shop today. "And it is with feelings of regret that we reluctantly say farewell to the lovely flower of Lansell Road, 18/4/'45",
I wonder who the lovely flower of Lansell Road was - and did go, and then return from her journey to France? Did she fall in love (and marry a handsome Count?). Did she use the dictionary - it's not very well-thumbed? So many questions. Fabulous.
