Walls Whare June 8-10

8–10 June 1979 · Tararua (Walls Whare)

This text was read by OCR from a scanned newsletter and has not been proofread yet, so expect odd characters and mistakes.

About 20 willing helpers assisted in the replacement of a window frame (now aluminium), the laying of a new floor, and spray-- painting the interior. Dinner was something different: a: glass or two of wine, and during the day there were many breaks for morning and afternoon "tea". Not so good were the problems with the generator and compressor. The story goes that "Dangerous" Dan Wilson also provided entertainment with fuel bottle antics and ironically (despite all the flames) under-cooked the sausages. Neil Woodrow
