Record Oyster Meal
While the Canterbury Rugby footballers were in Invercargill recently they looked on as keenly interested spectators at the annual Southland oyster-eating championships held on the Saturday evening after the match. The winner turned out to be S. Cole, a local man, who consumed 16 dozen and a half. This, however, came nowhere near the record established a number of years ago by C. Bradshaw, a resident of Bluff, who at one sitting consumed 24 dozen oystei's, duly checked and certified.
