In this podcast, Pat and Sam, in conversation with Lisa Rickert recall the social and sporting life in Newman, including football, golf, hockey and softball. They remember the pre-cursor to the Fortescue Festival and also camping at many of the different water holes. The conversation then turned towards blowing tyres on the road, and the advantage of having the Line Camps to rescue them. Pat also recalls the first Regattas at Sandhill, then the Billabong (Gingianna Pool),
