Ten Thousand Goodbyes: Lifetime Reflections of a Traveling ManRobert M. Justin had his first book, ‘Goodbye Crackernight’, published in 2009, a comic memoir of growing up in 1970s Australia, back in a long-lost era when a child’s proudest possession was not a Playstation but a second-hand bike. It was unusual for the bodies of patients who had undergone postmortem examination to leave the premises. The hospital had given special permission for this. She lay in the little white coffin in the middle of the room. Red birds would no longer fly off into green sunsets and Jack would not be slaying the giant again to childish sighs of relief. There would be no more brightly coloured pictures of jungle animals for her father to admire before telling her bedtime stories, no improbable pink giraffes or mauve tigers. Amy’s pyjamas lay on the pillow, neatly folded in a little square parcel her colouring books were stacked on a bedside table with a box of pencils on top but none of them would be needed again.

I think that was only because I was still in so much shock. “Sorry about that.” “It’s okay.” It was definitely not okay. “Welcome to my life,” I said with a sigh of defeat. “Ella?” Cinder asked when things got quiet. ‘Apart from year one, when I did 10 short stories and an option to do one other, I’ve never been optioned,’ he said. The actor also revealed that he is surprised he has been playing the character for so long. ‘And if the time comes when it’s make or break, I will walk.’ And if a director says to me “Oh don’t do that, we don’t want any of that”, then I will say, “I’m sorry but that’s what he does.” ‘Now if Agatha Christie writes that he dusts dirty chairs, on park benches he will sit on his handkerchief, he’s that sort of person, then I will show it.
