MIDDLE AGED LOVE AFFAIR A short story by Robyn
It never crossed my mind that I could be so easily superseded in my husband's life - after nearly a quarter-century of perfect wedded bliss - Tui's!!!!!
Perhaps the old dirge spouting familiarity and contempt may be trotted out at this point - or not! I admit I had let myself go somewhat - one's meno being permanently paused and all. And so, about to hit the big 5-0, resolutions and goals were set and realised, perma-tanned and a new hairdo outed - I thought I was lookin' good!

Kyle Eade
Last week one of Tournaments top skiers (Kyle Eade) sustained a terrible back injury while training for Moomba at a private lake in the South Island. Kyle, I believe, has fractured his C4 vertebra, however I believe the nerve is not severed.Kyle is currently in Christchurch Hospital and is about to be transferred to the Burwood Spinal Unit, where it is anticipated he will be in rehab for approximately twelve weeks. Kyle has his Canadian wife and their two young boys at his side. However, as they are both US residents, the living costs plus the inability for them to continue their business's and careers here in New Zealand is taking a significant financial toll on this young family.
To this end the water skiing fraternity has gathered around them both and has established a trust fund to get them through this difficult time. Please consider helping this young family in their hour of need by making a contribution to this fund. You can read more about Kyle on the IWSF website [link] .
Donations can be make on line to:
Kyle Eade Recovery Trust Fund
