An email notification from West Liquor Railside
Just in case you rush down to West Liquor Railside to stock up for the long weekend, it's closed.
Here is the reason why:
"The Trusts announce the temporary closure of West Liquor Railside, 126 Railside Avenue, Henderson.
The Trusts on behalf of Waitakere Licensing Trust today announced the temporary closure of their liquor store at 126 Railside Avenue, Henderson.
After a recent heavy rain event an inspection report was ordered and has identified potential health and safety risks in the building. Allan Pollard, CEO of The Trusts, says although the risks are low level the safety of staff and customers has been paramount.
“We apologise for inconveniencing our customers however while we investigate the issues further, we need to put health and safety first,” Mr Pollard said.
“We will take expert advice to investigate further and look at ways to mitigate the issues and open again as soon as possible,” said Mr Pollard.
All employees will be redeployed to other stores."
In my humble opinion, this wouldn't happen if we could buy alcohol from other places out West instead of the Trusts outlets - but, hey, that's just my humble opinion.

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
