They say you can't go back again, but visiting the hostel for non hostellers, 1970, was a case of remonstrance, just as it was at School.

Robert Donaldson
Good old school of hard knocks. Taught me before I joined the NZ Army in 1972
Could iron and wash my own clothes. Didn't have to be taught not to put whites with colours
Army food was 6 star compared to hostel food

Evelyn Hampton
Robert Donaldson bet you never got queen pudding with mile high meringue in the army and chocolate biscuits for supper!!!

Robert Donaldson
