Working Party - August 6, 2000


Bright and early on a typical sunny Wellington day, around a dozen hearty souls descended on Wellington College to do battle with the piles of rubbish cluttering the Gifford Observatory site. After a few subtle modifications to the enclosure fence the work of shifting the rubbish proceeded with enthusiasm.
