Paul's 16th birthday

Paul when aged around 16 perhaps

Paul typically didn't want a party or anything and took the day off school (it was a Tuesday) and caught the ferry over to Mandorah by himself and just fished for the day from the wharf.  Strange lad that Paul...

Paul thinks this was his 16th birthday but it could've been his 15th he admits.

Gwenny gets her wisdom teeth removed

Not sure on exact date but sometime when Gwenny was aged 16 she got her wisdom teeth removed.  She remembers being very uncomfortable and gagging with all sorts of padding down her throat as she was recovering.

It was fortunate for Paul that Gwenny lost a bit of her wisdom so he could talk her into marrying him when he did.
