Hi Dunja / Julie - Gordon's wife was Diane (nickname Dinks), Ivan & I used to visit them when they stayed in 1st avenue .....she taught art at OPS.  Julie - u right, i know when Ursie & Ging were still living in Kleinzee a few years back before their retirement, Gordon & Dinks were still there - Ursie used to work with Gordon I think and she would mention his name quite a lot. Not sure if they still there.

Hi Dee, Jackie told me they have left kleinzee and are probably living in CT now.

Luv to your mom and family

I must share a very embarrassing incident that happened over at our house in 1st Avenue. 

The Keyters lived two houses away from us and my mom would always get grape leaves from them to make the famous Greek (Dolmades)

To thank Diane for always supplying her with these leaves, my mom invited Diane Keyter over one Saturday afteroon for coffee at our house.  My dad had in the meantime arrived home intoxicated and was having an afternoon nap. (stark naked) I might add. 

He somewhere inbetween woke up to go to the toilet and ended up bumping into Diane in the passage.  Instead of retreating into the bedroom or going into the toilet he decided to start a full on conversation.

OMG as a child being taught art by a teacher that had now seen one of my parents naked was something that I do not wish on any child.  I now can look back and have a good chuckle but in those days I could have died of embarrasment.

Wonder if Diane will remember this incident?  202

...and thats how come Aunty Diane is the way she is today!   

[Delia]

Oh my word Dunja - i can just imagine - you must've dreaded going to art classes after that.............


I'm sure Dinks remembers it well, not something you tend to forget easily - but being the gentle understanding person she was, she probably laughed it off and realised how embarrassing it must've been for you............

I bump into Gordon from time to time at the Rosmead Spar so they must live in the Harfield/Kenilworth/Wynberg area.
