📸 Throwback Thursday 📸

Our Food & Beverage Manager, Margie, has uncovered this fantastic photo from 1986, and we couldn't help but share it again!

We'd love to hear the stories behind the smiles. Were you part of the Solway team back then? Do you recognise anyone in the photo? Tag your friends and share your favourite Solway memories in the comments.

With all this nostalgia, we're wondering... is it time for a Solway reunion? ❤️

And speaking of throwbacks, we're turning back the clock for our 80s-themed Christmas Party on 12 December, featuring NZ tribute band The Love Shack. Could this be the perfect excuse to get the old crew back together? 🎶🕺💃
