Bruce Truman
Was a few ago years now, but came out of the movie theater in Greymouth after watching one of the Narnia movies, and it was snowing and had built up on cars. Lots looking at each other like, is this real or did we just step through the wardrob.

Susan Hutchings
I have a memory of being a young girl, living in Westport; we came out of the movie theatre at night, and it was snowing.
Not a lot, just some magic flakes fluttering around.
We went up to Denniston the next day, which had received plenty.

Ron Johnson
I was there ! I was born in 1938 and I have a photo of me in the snow with Gran and my Godmother.

The Star Must Get Through.
"Which Star would that be?" Anton Chigur, 'No Country for Old Men'.
1939. Come September, PM Savage will say 'Where Britain goes, we go'. And they did.
