Subject: RE: Folk in NZ South Island
Charley, do you know where NZ is? Do you know the general shape? Well, look at the very bottom of the South Island - that little blip, almost triangular shaped on some maps, that's Stewart Island. Billy the bus is the name of the little yellow tourist bus that Sam drives people around in. I've seen it (and Sam) on a TV programme a couple of years back, just for a few seconds, just long enough to say "Look there's Sam!" and then he was gone. Sam was involved in the Wellington folk scene in the 60s but then he vanished, at least from our sight so it was great to find him here on mudcat. Haven't heard from him for awhile tho'. Robyn
