Learn from yesterday, Live for today, and Hope for tomorrow
Albert Einstein
We all have our own beliefs, I guess.
I always knew there was more to life than to touch, see, and smell. I remember my mum going for psychic readings when I was in my teens. It fascinated me but she never spoke of anything she had been told by the psychic reader.
I was pregnant and married at eighteen and thought I had it all; we were travelling around Australia with all our belongings in a panel van. That was the seventies for you, not a care in the world.
We made it as far as Townsville when, the car broke down. It was the bell-housing, and we had no money to fix it. So John, my husband, got a job and we moved into a caravan park. My brother Dennis, his wife Glenda and her family were staying there too. We had company for a while, but they moved on and kept travelling. I remember spending most of my time cramped in the caravan.
I was glad when December arrived; it was time to have my baby. I had no idea what I was in for, or what to expect; I had no one to tell me. I was on my own with this one, and on December, 5, 1974, a nine pound baby boy was born. We named him, Gavin, and that little boy was what helped keep me strong for the next twenty years.
Six weeks after Gavin was born, we had the car up and running again and off we headed- unregistered, no driver's license, and with a baby in the back. We were headed to New South Wales and guess what? We made it all the way, not a cop to be seen.
Scone was our destination. Mum and Dad had bought a pub called the Willow Tree Hotel. Things were looking up. We had somewhere to stay, and I had a job, and a mum to help with the baby. I worked in the pub and John worked in a bike shop across the road from the pub for a while. We stayed in Scone for two years, and then moved to Aberdeen. When Mum and Dad sold the pub, I ended up with a job at the meat works. I stayed there for a few years, and Jon worked there as a fitter. I made a lot of friends there, including a few who were 'interesting' to say the least. Like the Knights, I'm sure some of you have read that story. My brother Dennis, moved to Scone after seeing them a few years earlier in Townsville, but sadly, by that time, he and Glenda had separated, and he was with his new partner, Pam. Dennis and Pam only stayed a few months. They headed back to Townsville where they stayed. After some time, Mum and Dad had packed up and moved to Orange. I missed Mum and Dad; we often went over for a weekend.
My marriage was a struggle from day one. I guess I just wanted things to work and Gav to have a father. Who the hell was I kidding? After we moved to Denman, I was working at the Royal Hotel as a barmaid and I hated it. Gav had started school for the first time at Martindale, a very tiny school, just out of Denman. I remember that look on his face that first day, God love him. John was working at a lawn mower place in Muswellbrook, but we didn't stay there long.
We moved back to Aberdeen and I went back to the meat works. John got himself a job working in a bike shop in Muswellbrook, so he was in his glory. It was a Harley Davidson shop and he came to own many Harley's. He loved buying the early model 65 pan knuckle and shovel head motors that looked like they were ready for the scrap heap. He would rebuild them; he was very good at it, and always made good money when he sold them. With new cash in hand, he would head off to Mount Wilson to buy the next one. My lounge room often had bike parts in there getting rebuil

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
