'I met Veronica in 1988 on my first trip to Australia. I had admired her as an academic since my undergraduate days but had no idea what was in store for me once I met her. Over the decades we met in places across the world and in Spain and each meeting was unique, an intellectual uplift and more than often an absolute hoot when we travelled together. In paying tribute to Veronica I would like to write about some of the incredible and on one occasion hair-raising, trips we shared.'
