Description

Does the sheep bolting down the shearing board collide with the unknowing rousie? Short answer: yes. Having taken many workers to hospital, this incident was a first for Viki. Have you ever wondered about the term 'full sheep'? Does this traditional, feisty, Chinese-Maori mix woman find acceptance in an industry that at the time choose mostly male-dominated ideas? A product of a dad who taught that you were equal to all if you had a job and worked at it hard, she did not change to that dominance. Viki's biography takes you back to a time that no longer exists. Browse through a photo collection that reflects her desire to honour the mates photographed long ago. Most don't include her, as she was the photographer. These are photos she kept in pristine condition. A few shearing sheds feature, but mostly the people who meant the world to her. The traditional industry of shearing sheep laid bare. Curiosity and sheer will were her super power (or got her through when others saw problems). Traveling barren roads for hours, unsure of what lay at the end, the only firm plan was to be away for weeks at a time.
