From Rhodes With Love: Wednesday, 2nd March, 1977

At my place of work I talked with an auburn-haired Greek cleaner, who emigrated from Rhodes twenty-three years ago. She is married to an Australian-born Greek and they have two daughters and a son.

There were one hundred and forty-nine guests at the party to celebrate their elder daughter’s engagement, at a cost of eighteen dollars per head.

The family is soon to move from a house on General Holmes Drive to a house of two storeys, with a pool, in Sylvania Waters.

As a cleaner, the lady in question works for twelve hours per day on six days of the week.
