WAHINE sinking 53 years since.
Met the lady who is in charge of the celebrations tomorrow for the Seatoun service of the Wahine sinking 53 years ago.
She was hunting for serving dishes and table cloths. I helped her and told her my memories of the Wahine day...along with half the shop who stood and remembered.
I also know the journalist and the newbie policeman of the day.
What stories we remembered.

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.
Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.
In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.
