Keep Calm, Wash your Hands, Act with Kindness, Wash your Hands Again

Dovetail Restorations Ltd

Kia Ora, Kia kaha. Sending love to everyone at this time. Here is a little background about us: we are a small business of 5. When the recession of 2008 hit, we came out the other side. This time around I want my team and partners to know, that just like 2008, we will get through this together. We will stay open as long as we are able to mitigate the risks and spread of Covid-19. We want to assure you we take the threat of Covid-19 very seriously, as the health of our team and your family means the world to us. With all the uncertainty surrounding this pandemic, we guarantee the best possible hygiene measures at our workshop. We have increased our cleaning and sanitising of the workshop to 3 times a day. Moving forward, we will meet you directly outside our workshop in order to promote social distancing (if possible email us before hand with photos so we can provide you with a quote online!). We have a hand sanitiser station available at our workshop. We are not doing in-house assessments for people that have traveled or have made contact with anyone who has traveled in the past 14 days, or suspects they are ill. We cherish all of our clients and value your health. Please take care of yourself and others at this time, and support local business as much as you can 💛

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
