An Unenviable Experience.

Two motorists, who were returning to Wellington on Saturday afternoon had an unenviable experience while ascending the Te Kopi hill, Palliser Bay. When half-way up the hill a portion of the cliff came down with the result that the car was completely hemmed in and partly covered. After much digging the car was finally moved to safer ground. Neither of the occupants of the car were injured.
