Hey neighbours,

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.

The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.

They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.

What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

Better still, they’re a snap to make, especially if you have ready-grated tasty and parmesan cheese from Mainland in the fridge.

For the more adventurous eaters, finish each muffin with a little wedge of Brie, Noble or Blue cheese. You might not be able to resist sneaking a couple for your own lunch!

Call of the Wild Woman
Life/Death/Life Cycles of Relationships
An introductory study course of the book “Women Who Run With The Wolves.”

Thank you for hearing the call to unleash your Wild Woman with us during this 7-week course I have created with the

guidance from the Wild Woman herself, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés, author of “Women Who Run With The Wolves”.

The emphasis in this 7-week course is based on the perceptions of the female psyche, the shadow, archetypal realities

and the life/death/life cycles of relationships. Women are encouraged to walk beside the stories we study to enter the

depths of the underworld (subconscious mind) to retrieve and restore parts of their authentic self which are lost or lay

dormant so that they may experience spiritual vitality and liberation in their life once again. Let’s contact this fundamental

and ancient layer of our being, the realm of the Wild Woman.

Date: Mondays starting March 4 thru April 15, 2019 @ 7pm to 9pm

Venue: Sharda Centre – 15 Percy Graham Drive – Tuakau

To Register: Please email Dee your Name, Phone Number & Address (All information remains Private)

EARLY BIRD SPECIAL - $222 before FEB 22

Investment: NZ$255.00 - A deposit of NZ$55.00 is required to hold your space

This is payable by bank transfer to Sassy Red LTD with your name as reference and Wild Woman as code.

ASB Acct # 12-3054-0335205-00

The remaining balance of NZ$200 is due on or before March 4.

The deposit is non-refundable. However, it may be applied to future courses. If the course is cancelled, you

will receive a full refund. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

I have copies of the book, “Women Who Run with the Wolves” to purchase @ $40 each.
