OK, Mrs Hutchins once told the single, most oddest story I still have ever heard- when I was a knee- high lad- and Ive never forgotten the exact moment. I remember were both near a fridge and we may have been chatting about a pavlova? Who knows, I dont recall that bit. Anyway, she tells me one day her mum was trying to get her to eat passionfruit, and she mustn't had been a fan of passion fruit bcos of the seeds. So, she replied to her mum saying she would eat it but only if she took the seeds out first !!!! Hahahaha I did have to think abit about it back then... but Im sure I just said cool, bye and ran off hahahha But- l have carried that in my memory after 40 years ! Lovely, friendly and comical lady, who always asked if we wanted a 'loooonnnng' drink of cordial (poured from a height;) or a short one (a drop) hahaha and who I think let me get away with murder on a few occasions ! All the best to you all for now and times to come Mr Hutchins, Vicki, Glenn, Debbie, and Leanne. Even I miss her already, although it has been eons since SH ! I was so gutted to read the news and I hope you are all doing as well as you possibly could be. A good friend to my parents, neigh- our whole family, I know; and will always be held in awefully nice memories ! Will be thinking of you lot on Friday.
