"Gran's" Home On The Range
Some of the personalities who are heard regularly trom 1ZB live at a distance from the studio, but the record is probably held by "Gran," whose home is in the Waitakeres. It had always been her ambition to find a quiet place to live, and eventually she bought a section high up in Auckland’s Blue Mountains, and there she set about building her home. Naturally she had to have the help of a carpenter in building the main tramework, but the rest, including outer framework and painting, was her own work. Then came the garden, and this is now
a lovely spot, a profusion of flower and vegetable beds and fruit trees.
