This week we honour two
Good Bastards from Auckland. I first met them last year in Auckland. They are
ardent supporters of Good Bastards and contribute heaps of material for the
site.
Louise was sixteen when she first met Kurt, he was 21 and just out of hospital from a horrific accident that left him a paraplegic. Young Kurt had an eye for beauty and asked out the sweet Louise who declined.
No was never a good word for Kurt, and after a few more knock backs she eventually consented to a date. They courted for three years when Kurt finally plucked up enough courage to buy an engagement ring. Sweet innocent Louise accepted and in 1972 they married. Against all medical advice they had two beautiful daughters and now three grand kids.
Kurt worked for the North Shore Fire Centre for twenty years. Ten in the control room and ten in the breathing apparatus division.
Now retired he helps Louise with her Cattery Business and generally enjoys life to the hilt.
Louise is also heavily involved with a group called MASC. Mothers Against Sex Crimes.

They drive a 70’s Cadillac called 'Pru' and enjoy life up north of Auckland taking it easy by the water and only getting annoyed when some renegade fish bastard chooses to rise to disturb the placid surface.
Congratulations on being admitted to the Good Bastards Hall of Fame.
