how does hornsby usually go? i'm pretty sure we do quite well, but does anyone have any statistics from years gone by?

yeah i wouldn't have minded it being a bit harder, otherwise there's no distinction between people who are really good at the subject and those that did well because the exam was easy. i think i did pretty well, but i usually make a lot of stupid errors. ah well, here's hoping. i finished with...

i don't understand it... daisy was half aboriginal, right? making gladys a quarter aboriginal, right? making sally an eight aboriginal, right? so the whole book is about her search for an 8th of her cultural heritage? or am i wrong? it would just seem silly for her to write a book about...
