Life on the Line Podcast

Have you visited us yet? Fridays from 5 pm at Tanunda Recreational Park. Visitors are always welcome. Do you prefer listening to stories rather than reading them? Sometimes I feel the same. 

You can be doing something else while listening so this post I want to introduce you to the "Life on the Line Podcast". (The term podcast comes from the iPod of yesteryear where you could store audio files and listen to them any time)

This podcast by Angus Hordern hosts a panel discussion of three significant battles where Australians overcame the odds, with David Buckwalter, Michael Kelly and Peter Slack-Smith.

This panel conversation is on three significant battles in Australian military history where our forces overcame overwhelming odds, moderated by Angus Hordern.

The guests include: David Buckwalter, a Vietnam War veteran, speaks on the Battle of Wau from World War II; Michael Kelly, Australian War Memorial historian and army veteran, speaks on the Battle of Kapyong from the Korean War; and, Peter Slack-Smith, a Vietnam veteran, speaks about the Battle of Long Tan, from his perspective as a Delta Company soldier in that bloody engagement.

Our Hut is Open TODAY!

Will you join us, we’re starting the year off with a BBQ?

The phrase "Happy Hour" being singular is really a misnomer. 

We have several hours in which we are happy, surrounded by our fellow members and occasional visitors. Visitors are always welcome.

Sometimes we have a major meal to which members are asked to RSVP. These are very popular.

Other evenings we have a small offering of finger foods that often include sausage rolls, small pies and, ... well, you get the idea. One way or another, we have a good time.

If you need somewhere to go tonight or any Friday night, come to The Hut for several happy hours. 

We'll look forward to seeing you as we commence our 2026 schedule of events.

Note: Apologies for the blue links in the text that Google has decided to put in. I'm working on getting rid of it
