Remember Dolly's?
We are looking for any information or photos of the Dolly's food van, operating from the 1970s to the early part of the new century. As discussed on our blog, the Dolly's van represents more than just memories of hot chips and gravy for some of our alumni. If you have a Dolly's story to share, please contact us at reunion.info@anu.edu.au
