Hi Booklovers! Thank you for your support to date. In particular there have been many interesting books among the various lots of donations coming in.
There have been many requests over the years for books on fishing which I was usually unable to supply, however we have been very fortunate. We now have enough books and DVDs to set up a new box in the sports section.
Today we had a couple of boxes of older cricket and rugby books arrive – very interesting.
For the lady who was looking for Camilla Lackberg – I now have one of hers – please email me to find out if it is one you want. I have a new Peter Fitzsimons book for the gentlemen who was asking – please email me re this.
I have found the box of Horse and Pony magazines. I have also taken to the hall this evening a big pile of the Australian Cardmaking Stamping & Papercraft magazines – all looking for new homes.
There are lots of new books being sorted into their boxes daily so please don't forget to come in again before we close on Sunday.
I have had several responses to my earlier email requesting that only vaccinated persons come into the hall for my book fair. Perhaps I should make myself clearer. I am not asking to see vaccination passes as I have no wish to embarrass anyone in front of others, nor can I afford to employ someone to check them for me. I will be putting up a sign on Tuesday to reflect this position. I have asked those unvaccinated persons who wish to attend to come either early in the morning (9 – 10am) or late in the afternoon (5 – 6pm) when there are fewer people in the hall. Additionally, I will be working every day until mid-January and I cannot afford to go off sick. I do not have anyone who can cover for me (even if I could afford to pay them) so I must remain healthy – and I expect all my customers want to remain healthy as well.
Best wishes and stay safe

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

Will these roadworks affect you?
Don’t expect a quick trip between Cambridge and Tamahere for much of this year, because major roadworks are starting.
Asphalt works on that section of Waikato Expressway will run from March through to late 2026, NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) says. Motorists are warned to plan for significant delays.
“Unfortunately the pavement, particularly in the slow lanes, has deteriorated faster than expected,” NZTA’s Roger Brady said.
