Why do they not offer a hard copy option as others do? Case in point - the diner in Oxford. You are not served until you record your particulars via your cell phone. If it wasn't for my friend yesterday who put my contact details in on his phone, I would not have got a meal. Today I visited Warehouse Stationary in Northwood. Same thing - app download only. The elderly man in front of me, just sanitized his hands and walked in - as I did. Do not these businesses realize that not everyone has a cell phone and even those who do have one, may find downloading the app too difficult. What happens when a group of elderly people go to a restaurant and they have to register via their cell phones - if they have one - and they can't? This is short-shortsightedness, and because I am not cell phone savvy, I, like hundreds of others, won't spend money at those premises. Businesses take note: if you want our money, please provide a hard-copy option.

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Bookworms have coronavirus to thank for a second delay to a popular Christchurch book sale this year.

Subject: Mens shed tool appeal.

Thanks to the generosity of Summerset on Cavendish retirement village, they have donated a brand new facility for use as a men's shed which will help us oldies to create projects for charity, and also enable us to continue our hobbies and do minor repairs and jobs for those residents who are are no longer able to do these themselves.
And to this end we are appealing to the very generous members of Neighbourly for donations of tools which you no longer need or use, to equip our now empty workshop. Any tools ( hand or machine ) would be greatly appreciated , and would be put to very good use by some of our very skilful residents and would help them pass their days productively. If you are able to help please contact Ken on 027 682 8820 or 354 11820. We would gladly pick any up at anytime that suits you. Any donations would be greatly appreciated and well loved and cared for. Thank you.
