I remember when Zofia and her family came to live across the road from our shop in Eden Hill - Corner of Ivanhoe Street and Walter Road must have been about 1957? I would love to be in touch with Zofia again - she and I were about the same age. My name is Coralie Mattys

Happy to say we made contact and are now friends on Facebook and I recently spent a fantastic weekend with Sofia and her partner, Peter, in their home in Canberra - so wonderful to have had the opportunity to re-make contact - thanks to you
