Vale: Di Dalziel
04-04-1949 – 22-04-2003
Tragically, my co-writer for this book, Di Dalziel will not see its publication. She died suddenly at her property, whilst walking around the paddocks on a beautiful autumn day.
One of her favourite pastimes was to visit me each Friday. We would spend the afternoon watching and analysing videos, whilst eating a pull-apart loaf amply topped with different dips! This was a tradition started in University days, when we analysed films in Film studies for professional writing.
The last series we watched was Di's declared favourite show, as it was romantic, funny, and included time travel. The plot of the English television series, starring Nicholas Lyndhurst, like this book, Mirror, Mirror …contained parallel tales that merge at the end of the plot. The title of this show is apt for her epitaph, both as a dear and loyal friend and co-author: Goodnight Sweetheart.
