BOOKS - Little business starting again!!
The Little Book Shop, Latham Street, will be open from Monday 9.30 - noon for door sales. Presently we have bags ( at least 10 books per bag) of books for sale - action, romance, crime, fantasy and sci fi but we have more than a few hundred boxes to move on so if you want a different subject ie cooking, gardening, self help, NZ or sport let us know. These are preloved books from our community fundraiser so make a donation into the donation tin. Every dollar helps thank you.
If you prefer we can select books from the shop according to your wants. The easiest way if you know what you want is to email an order to magicacorn@hotmail.com or text 021 1302 859. Otherwise we'll bring a selection of your interests to the door - with gloves.Cheers Anne

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.
