Ever since Dad’s been coming to the UK & Ireland
Anne’s been working with him
Through many changes, different people, different locations
Anne’s been the one constant
22 years it’s been for fuck’s sake
Shit, that’s a long time
She does everything over here for us
She runs Auslink, which is Dad’s UK office
Handles of all the merchandising
Accomodations, car hire
You name it, Anne takes care of it
I know there’s a million things she does that we don’t even know about
She just get’s it done
But more than all the stuff that Anne does
Is who she is
She’s a great friend to us
And an amazing lady
Her and Dick, her husband, are our family over here
They help to keep it all running smoothly and keep us on track
I know we come into the country for these tours like a tornado
Reeking havoc and leaving a trail of distruction
And Anne doesn’t bat an eyelid
We love her
And while we’re all so excited to being going home soon
It means saying goodbye
She’ll cry
Mum will cry
Dad will look at them like their fucking idiots
She’ll give me one of her famous bear hugs
And as we walk away
She’ll be thinking thank God those little Aussie fuckers have gone back to work, planning the next tour
Enjoy the peace and quiet while it lasts Annie
Love you x
Old friends are the BEST Friends! They can pick up where we left off no matter how much time passes. Time unearths the best and worst of who we are…those who remain are there because they accept our flaws as character and our qualities for what they are, nothing more, nothing less.
Friendship is mutual appreciation…Everyone needs an “Annie”. I love the “Annie’s” in my life too! 🙂
