Let's take a trip to Madagascar (in the comfort of the Church Hall)with Wyn and Gil Barbazet, of Dunedin and Waianakarua.
Madagascar is remote and in political turmoil, so it's probably the only way most of us will ever get to see it.
Wyn and Gil made a flying visit to this little known island and they so wanted to explore it more deeply that in 2008 they're turned to volunteer in a children's home for 3mths.
They share their experience with us on this coming Friday 12 September at the Hampden Church and Community Hall.
We meet at 5pm for tea or coffee and a bite to eat before they start their talk at 5.30. Gold coin Koha to cover hall hire is appreciated. Anyone and everyone who may be interested is welcome to another Arm Chair Adventure.
