The upstairs window of the Bluebird Cafe in the Tasmanian ghost town of Copperfield reflects only the sky, and above this window the gable rises to a point on top of which is a spindle of turned wood, painted blue. If you look up at the spindle and half close your eyes, especially at dusk, the spindle looks like a woman.

Bedrock Mean, the only human being for miles around, still lives in the cafe where she mourns for her young daughter Lovelygod who vanished from her bedroom in the middle of the night on the seventeenth of August 1970, ten years to the day before the baby Azaria Chamberlain vanished from her bed in a tent in Ularu.
