"West to the Annie - Renata Kawepo’s Hawke's Bay Legacy”
There have been a lot of enquiries about this book which has been out of print for some time and a reprint is now being considered.
It was published in 2002 and reprinted the following year. It sold for $65 in 2002 but a new edition is likely to be around $80-90.
Please email westtotheannie@knowledgebank.org.nz to express interest in purchasing a copy of a reprint as it will only go ahead if there is sufficient genuine interest in it.

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.

New neighbour
Okay folks, if you feed your animals outside, you might want to rethink that. We have new nocturnal neighbours, inside Havelock North.
There is a very well fed brush tail possum up the pōhutukawa tree in my garden.
I don’t know where it’s come in from, but it’s in the middle of a residential neighbourhood, so keep an eye on your pet doors, open windows and doors and pet food.
I’ll be notifying council and DOC tomorrow.
