Letters during 1968 start to talk about Clarens.
The folks bought 4 stands in the centre of this sleepy Free State town. There was a small rundown sandstone cottage on the top stand.
They spent many years driving down to Clarens from Vanderbijlpark for the weekend, renovating, building and furnishing the cottage, these were remarkable times.
I remember their energy, the hard work, the sense of camping during the build, they made life long friendships and they partied non stop between all the work.
I loved it all, as did Clive.
