Dairy in Powells Rd closes today
Sad to say, but the owner is concerned about the number of people who don't seem to be taking this situation seriously. Not obeying the one in one out rule, unsupervised children touching things on the shelves, (he then has to clean), and a general disregard for the gravity of his health and the health of the community. So he has chosen to close his business down.
I can't say I blame him, but if as a community, had we known of his concerns, perhaps we could have helped. No amount of signage seemed to be working so a physical presence at the door reminding people of the rules may have enabled him to remain open. Alas that is all in hindsight now. He did indicate a number of his colleagues in the industry would follow suit so perhaps we can preserve the local community dairy with a bit of dialogue with them and a reminder at the door, by those who can afford the time to help.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.
