A Goodly Trippe.

Recipe for a good fit trip:-

Take one large Northern Orossing, suitably dried in the sun.

Take three keen peasants, preferably bursting with energy.

Take the 3.56 railcar to masterton.

Mix the peasants thoroughly in Mitre Flats Hut, sprinkling with mild oaths until 4 a.m. when they should be browned off.

At this stage the track should be pounded vigorously until all traces of keenness have disappeared

Bake in the sun at Tarn Rigde for 30 mins. Adding liberal quatitios of food and water.

Proceed to roll the resulting mess over the remaining tops into the Sth. Ohau.

At 7 p.m. insert the resulting jelly into a medium taxi and stew at Levin for ¾ hour.

Add transport to taste and serve with breakfast in bed next day

Note: The amount of hot air which the finished product liberates is quite remarkable.
