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: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
