I remember when it reopened in ‘81. I was 16 and had been there when I was younger, before it closed. Quite exciting because we had to travel from Budgewoi.
I was working in the ANZ bank as a trainee teller and the new owner banked with us. The new owner must have been extremely inexperienced because the day after opening night he brought in the takings. Unlike other business owners with the money all bundled and counted, he just through a calico bag of notes and coins at me. And wasn’t happy when I said he would need to organize it before I would take the deposit.
