NZ Post Shop on North Avon Rd

Susan from Richmond

Hi neighbours! As we all know, there are ongoing roadworks around Stanmore-Nth Avon roads which can be a bit of a pain to deal with. I popped into the wee Post Shop/ stationery shop situated at the Richmond mall? top end of Stanmore Rd today to send off a few parcels. Briefly talked to the owner who said due to the roadworks his business has dropped off significantly. Usually his customers park on Nth Avon but now the road is being worked on there is no parking space but as he has doors front and back of his shop ( in case some don't realize) there is plenty of parking space at the back which is in the wee mall. It would be good to try and keep supporting our local businesses if possible. The roadworks obviously need to be done but often tend to drag on longer than the schedule says and it must be really hard for the business owners to make ends meet. Anyway, just a thought and thanks for reading. Keep warm everyone!

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I dance in the sky with green and gold, a spectacle few are lucky to behold; I’m best seen in the south, a celestial sight—what am I, lighting up the New Zealand night?
