Books & DVD's from Trudi
Hi Booklovers! Just a quick note to confirm that the promised 1200 DVDs arrived from Tauranga on Tuesday. I've found another ten boxes from home too. I have also located a bag full of Bollywood DVDs if that is your interest. All the recent arrivals are up on the stage.
Don't forget to look at the small $1 books in the mauve boxes. They also sell at 10 for $5. There's lots of good reading there.
For the lady at Eureka who wanted Thomas Harris' Red Dragon – I now have two copies!
I'm not having any problems with Covid requirements. All my visitors are either signing in or using the App. All are wearing masks and I can't afford staff to request vaccination certificates. People are maintaining social distancing which is really appreciated. We now have to live with Covid but this new Omicron variant means we should all do our best to keep ourselves safe.
I wish you all a very happy and safe Christmas.
Trudi

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
Derelict Tokanui Hospital site in line for a clean-up
Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.
The former psychiatric hospital, southeast of Te Awamutu, sits on land taken from Ngāti Maniapoto under the Public Works Act in 1910.
Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
