Dame
Cath (I knew her years ago so I know the informality will be
just fine) was the first female Mayor of Auckland in 1983 and then the first
female Governor-General of New Zealand in 1990.
A remarkable achievement given that she was a divorced
female. But Cath is, and was, a feisty
no nonsense cheerful woman. She doesn't
put on airs and graces. She likes a laugh and a gin. A thoroughly decent woman.
She also managed to have 4 children, one of whom became
an MP as well as completing a degree in zoology.
