Fantastic, a trip down memory lane is always good for us old timers. Even spotted a few car models I once owned. The town between 1971 and now has changed so much, along with society and everyday technology. I remember standing in front of the old pub. I took out my camera and snapped a photograph just as a green Holden drove past. With never a thought that that scene would soon be gone. Thanks.
When I moved to Nelson in 1988, people used to ask me "oh, you must be so pleased that at last you've living in Nelson". It really got up my nose. I responded "actually, I only came here for the job. I really miss the town we left." Shocked expressions. "Where was that?" "Tokoroa". End of conversation. But it was true. Our kids grew up in a safe, friendly, multicultural environment, the schools were great , we had good access to the outdoors and we really enjoyed our 17 years there.
The old bank of New Zealand in Logan st is still there it is the lawyers now. The old Pub has been gone a long time ago. Tokoroa town pools has been replace with a new one indoor pool. And the Rotary Club clock has been removed it is sad to see it gone. I love that clock its been there for a long time.
Some old good memories there! Well Done!!!
