Bugle Blowing Time To Go Home

Michael from Trentham

Must be the only tradies & construction workers in the world who utilise a military campus to know just when its time to pack up and go home on a daily basis from the blowing of a single bugle.

The workers at The Reserve area constructing housing on the Wallaceville Estate hear a loud, engaging and tuneful piece of bugling coming from a yard in the nearby Trentham military camp every day starting exactly at 5pm which is the time they finish work for the day.
The tune played is not The Last Post. So on most days they all turn up for work the next morning unless Covid intervenes.
