Joyous gratitude seems to be Neill’s default position now, but there is contemplation of the self and the cosmos too. I had my family and all the grandchildren. “I’m not off the hook as such, but there’s no cancer in my body,” he says. (“Have you noticed I have a slight look of lab rat about me?” he jokes.) At the time, Neill was the only person in New South Wales on it, and when he switched his treatment to New Zealand so he could be home for Christmas, he was the only person in the country. But as I went on and kept writing, I realised it was actually sort of giving me a reason to live and I would go to bed thinking, I’ll write about that tomorrow … Even this decade, when he has been so ill, and he has trod the fine line between solitude and loneliness. Details of past relationships are either omitted, as in the case of his most recent relationship with the Canberra press gallery journalist Laura Tingle, or referred to fleetingly as with his marriages to actor Lisa Harrow and to film makeup artist Noriko Watanabe. He has a reputation as a genuine Mr Nice Guy and his friends are legion, firm, and not only stellar – yes, there he is on his much-loved As memoirs go, it is very funny and extremely entertaining, but with a judicious touch of poignancy. We’ve built all these lovely terraces, we’ve got these olive trees and cypresses, and I want to be around to see it all mature.
