In memory of Janine Passmore from Brisbane who was 14 when she died in a motor vehicle

accident 15 years ago. She would have been 29 on the 11th March 06. To her mother,

Sandra, who dances with Evie Luck in Brisbane, it seems just like yesterday. I don't

know you Sandra, but I know your pain because my lovely Anneke died on 15th March

1999 and that could also be yesterday, in my mind. I am happy to write this dance

for you, in memory of Janine…. who loved animals specially lost or injured

animals and loved the colour yellow!

I hope this dance appeals to the general line dance population.

It's got a good Rock n roll beat and is quite fast.

When you dance it spare a thought for Janine who never even got a

chance to dance… but I'll bet she would have liked to!

Life doesn't seem fair at times, but I guess it is not for us to question… what's that old saying…. 'It's not for us to wonder why,

It's just for us to do and die' Still doesn't seem fair to me.

See you on the floor sometime…… Jan
