OLIVE PINK

“… cranky womans…”

From Switzerland: “I like story of cranky womans (referring, I suspect, to Olive Pink). Is this woman unusual in your country, Australia”?

REPLY: “Unfortunately, yes. Although the rugged individualistic types like dear old Olive are still to be found after a diligent search, the species are being overtaken by conforming, conservative types who dot their i’s and toe the hypothetical line. Such a pity.”
