Wilson Micro-Dry Comfort Replacement Grp

This is a moisture problem solved by laundry logic: perforated microfibre felt over a thick foam backing, about 2.1 mm of it, engineered to move sweat somewhere else instead of storing it. It will explain all of that at length, slowly, walking you round Dunedin while the dryer finishes.

Dunedin, New Zealand
01
cardiovascular tennis classes 33326 — Dunedin Railway Station in Dunedin, A dark basalt station with pale limestone facings, a square clock tower and red-tiled roof, its booking hall floored with a mosaic of nearly a million small tiles
Stop one

Dunedin Railway Station

Wilson Micro-Dry Comfort Replacement Grp: They called the architect Gingerbread George, and I refuse to pretend that is not the best thing here. George Troup built this between 1903 and 1906, dark basalt iced with Oamaru limestone, Flemish Renaissance revival laid on thick. The booking hall floor is about 725,000 Royal Doulton porcelain tiles worked into a design with a locomotive in it, and the same firm supplied the tiled friezes and the stained glass of engines. Up to a hundred trains a day at its peak, serving a city fattened by the 1860s Otago gold rush, briefly the largest in New Zealand. Tourist trains now, galleries inside.

02
cardiovascular tennis classes 33326 — Larnach Castle in Dunedin, A grey stone mansion with battlements and a square tower on a high ridge of the peninsula, surrounded by terraced gardens with views over a long harbour
Stop two

Larnach Castle

Wilson Micro-Dry Comfort Replacement Grp: Built between 1871 and 1887 for William Larnach, a banker and politician who shipped the ingredients in from Europe — Italian marble, Venetian glass, English tiles — and put hundreds of workers and years of carving to assembling them. Larnach's life ended in 1898 when he shot himself in a committee room of Parliament in Wellington, after business failures and family difficulties. The house passed through many hands, serving as a mental hospital and a nuns' retreat, and had fallen to ruin before the Barker family bought it in 1967 and restored it over decades. The only building here generally called a castle.

03
cardiovascular tennis classes 33326 — Olveston Historic Home in Dunedin, A large brick and Oamaru-stone Jacobean house set in a garden, its panelled interiors densely hung with paintings, Japanese armour, and hunting trophies from a family's travels
Stop three

Olveston Historic Home

Wilson Micro-Dry Comfort Replacement Grp: Central heating and a service lift in 1906 — someone here thought hard about getting dinner to the table hot. Olveston was built between 1904 and 1906 for the businessman David Theomin, to the design of the English architect Ernest George, in Jacobean revival. The Theomins, a Jewish family of English origin who prospered in importing and the piano trade, travelled widely and came home loaded: paintings, ceramics, Japanese and Chinese objects, furnishings. Their daughter Dorothy lived there until her death in 1966 and left the house complete with its contents to the city. A museum since 1967, almost exactly as they left it.

04
cardiovascular tennis classes 33326 — First Church of Otago in Dunedin, A white Oamaru-stone Gothic church with a slender spire rising above a raised terrace, its buttresses and pinnacles standing out sharply against dark surrounding buildings
Stop four

First Church of Otago

Wilson Micro-Dry Comfort Replacement Grp: Everything here was prepped before anything was built, the only cooking lesson worth giving. Bell Hill had to come down first — picks and barrows through the 1860s, the spoil carted off to reclaim harbour land. Only then, in 1873, was First Church completed for the Presbyterian settlers who founded Dunedin in 1848 as a Free Church of Scotland settlement, the name being the Gaelic-derived one for Edinburgh. Robert Lawson won the commission by competition and gave it Gothic revival in Oamaru limestone, with a spire about fifty-four metres high. Widely called the finest nineteenth-century church in New Zealand, and still an active congregation.

Wilson Micro-Dry Comfort Replacement Grp

Written for this world alone.

Machine four's yours, it's the good one. Sit down. You'll be here forty minutes and I've got nothing on. Here's what nobody tells you about my trade: everything comes down to whether a fabric moves water away or just holds onto it. That's the whole science. A towel that holds water is a wet towel.

A grip that holds sweat is a wet grip, and then you're squeezing harder, and then your elbow hurts, and then you blame your serve. It's laundry. It's all laundry.

Dryer's got a while yet. Come see the town while we wait. Dunedin Railway Station, built 1903 to 1906 by George Troup, whose Flemish Renaissance revival in dark basalt earned him the name Gingerbread George, with a booking hall floor of roughly 725,000 Royal Doulton porcelain tiles. At its peak it handled up to a hundred trains a day, on gold-rush money.

Then Larnach Castle, built 1871 to 1887 out on the peninsula for William Larnach, who imported Italian marble and Venetian glass and craftsmen, and whose life ended in 1898 in a parliamentary committee room. It served as a mental hospital and a nuns' retreat and a ruin before the Barker family took it on in 1967.

Then Olveston Historic Home, built 1904 to 1906 for the Theomin family, left to the city complete with its contents by their daughter Dorothy in 1966, and still almost exactly as they had it. And finally First Church of Otago, completed 1873 by Robert Lawson in Oamaru limestone, its spire about fifty-four metres, on a site made by levelling Bell Hill with picks and barrows.

Right, your load's nearly done, so here's the grip. Microfibre copolymer composite felt, built specifically for moisture management, with a perforated surface so the sweat has somewhere to go instead of sitting under the palm, and a thick foam backing underneath for genuine cushioning. About 2.1 mm thick — a substantial, comfortable build rather than a thin one.

It handles the whole range of Dunedin weather, everywhere from a still bright morning on the peninsula to the sideways southerly that arrives at four without warning. It is also perfect for a station whose floor is 725,000 separate small tiles, laid by people who understood that comfort is always somebody's tedious job.
