Red Tree

There’s a red tree at the back of the Amphitheatre. It’s a dead gum tree. A few years ago Uncle Doug decided to paint it red. That ended up being a pinky kind of red. A few branches have been taken off lately by the arborist to ensure it is safe.

For some reason or other, in about 2008 someone decided to have a get-together for all the red-haired people on site. I’m not sure how they spread the word – it was nothing to do with us – but it gathered momentum and quite a few people turned up. It was known as the ‘Ranga Meet’. It’s happened each year since at a determined-on-the-day time. Anyway. There you go.
