Fete Day 1986
In the early days of
the fete; having an adequate PA system which could be heard, was always a
very hit and miss affair. As PJ took over the engineering some years
earlier he had embarked on a plan to purchase new speakers and two
amplifiers which would deliver a good sound.
Each year the setting
up of the pa would entail the radio staff being on site by 10am and
running out cables to all the speaker points. Eight points were involved
and by the time the PA was complete it was time to open the fete. At the
end of the day after everyone had gone home, the PA was dismantled and
another hour was spent in putting it away.
This year was a milestone
for this event, as for the first time a good quality signal was relayed
across the fete ground and the bed head system, patients were able to
listen to the music and speeches.
Nanette Newman came
along and officiated, Nannette toured the stalls afterwards and visited
the wards and remained on hand to sign autographs.
