I started out as a subsistence volunteer as I was too young to get the dole, we used to have plenty of MSC diggers work with us, some good, some bad, some never there! Nowadays MSC is apparently some kind of degree?
We're planning a series of articles on the history of digging for the Diggers' Forum newsletter, including on the MSC, subsistence volunteering, the old style circuit, the fashions..... If anyone has any memories they'd like to share we'd love to hear from you, especially if you have any truly terrible photos! PM me through this site.
Its still important that we understand how we got to where we are now, for everything that could be better, we've come a long way.
