At the age of 15 I started noticing girls in a big way. My first crush was Bernadette from Box Hill South. Then I met a Bernadette from Nunawading South. She lived in the new developments there. Her dad was a teacher. He made homemade ginger beer that he stored under the house and it tasted heavenly. Bernadette and I didn’t go out together. I went round her place and played Canasta, a card game she introduced me to. She only seemed to have one record “Cocker Happy” the best of Joe Cocker. I never liked Joe Cocker but some of the songs started to get to me. This one especially.
She knew I liked her. We kissed a couple of times but I think she just enjoyed having boys competing over her. On New Years Eve she came to the party hand in hand with some dude with black cords and a black linen shirt. My time was up.
