This weekend as we reflect in our homes rather than at local Dawn Services we acknowledge the service of all those who served for New Zealand in Gallipoli, the Somme, Malaya or are out on patrol today with the United Nations.

We shall remember them this Anzac Day.

Remember to keep safe and all the best for the weeks ahead, my contact details are below if you need any assistance.

Kind regards,

Here are a couple of links to the RSA please just give $5 that is only one of the 20 or 30 coffees we have not had this month. The RSA does a great job and really depends on Poppy day to help them look after all our returned servicemen. These guys and girls have been places, seen and done things and some have not come back. All so we can enjoy the life we had and will have again

We’ve been privileged to help Kiwis get the essentials needed to work, study, and stay connected. It’s led to huge demand and some orders are taking longer to deliver. We’d really like to apologise to the customers who’ve experienced these delays.

To help get it sorted faster we’ve quadrupled our Customer Care team, and expanded our order fulfilment network so we can get thousands more orders delivered each day. Plus our remote Tech Solutions service will be free until May 11 to lend customers a hand with technology advice or setting up.

Thanks for your patience, everyone. We’re getting there.
