Dear Neighbours,

At our home on Sunday morning, an unidentified person was captured by our security camera approaching our open front door, looking inside, and subsequently walking around the side of the house. Upon being questioned, they said they were looking for an individual not known to us and left without further enquiry. They were carrying a black case, had a rug over one shoulder, had a back pack, and wore a cap and sunglasses. See photo.

We have not experienced any harm, but as a precaution, we’ve reported the occurrence to the police.

If you have had a similar encounter or have any information, please do get in touch.

Stay safe. Warm regards,

Paul

KINTSUGI WORKSHOP THIS MARCH

Re-use, Re-Purpose, Beautify with Gold!!

Hello Lovely locals. Come along and learn this wonderful technique.

Ema Frost will be holding KINTSUGI WORKSHOPS on Saturday, 16th & Sunday, 17th March here in Wellington again at Toi Poneke and Whirinaki Whare Taonga. She has limited spots available so make sure to book in early.

Have you ever wanted to try Kintsugi.... It's an ancient Japanese art form where you fix broken pottery with gold - making its imperfections its beauty. - A truly wonderful philosophy to live by.

If you are interested please go to: tinyurl.com...

I'm sure there's a few of you out there that have been saving a broken piece not knowing quite what to do with it, and if not Ema has plenty of back ups. So just bring yourselves and have some fun. Bring a friend and make some Kintsugi magic together.
