The "Murder House"
I remember visits to the "Murder House"from primary school in 1970s Karori. This was the dental clinic in what is now the PM's residence in Tinakori Road. A list of names would go up on the school noticeboard for who had to go that week. I would feel sick with terror if my name was up as I hated the drill. On Thursday lunchtimes a teal-coloured bus would arrive at the edge of the playground and those going climbed aboard. More fear and trembling. Oh the relief when it was finished and you could enjoy the trip home!
