Today, that same craving fuels something very different: La La Land, Raglan’s whimsical chocolate café where thick, velvety hot chocolates and handmade cakes have become a local institution.
Are you a hot chocolate fan?

Hearings into a controversial plan to bring two fast-food giants to the main street of the small Waikato town have been adjourned with a decision on whether the town will have to bend the knee to Burger King expected before the end of the year.

Keen to see a fluffy royal albatross live? Head to the Royal Cam - a 24-hour live stream of an albatross nest.
Why the live feed? Well, the royal albatross are slow-breeding birds, and lay only one egg every two years.
Currently the chick in the feed is in its post-guard period, and is left alone. The parents are only returning with food every few days. This little chick will be hitting a milestone really soon - it will finally take their first flight in September! Keep an eye on our little celebrity here.
We hope this link brings a smile!
