Threads Op Shop open for day of Blossom Parade - lots of specials.
Just received a poster saying Threads Op Shop in Karamu Road are opening 9 - 4pm on this Saturday (Blossom Parade day). They are usually shut on Saturdays. They have lots of very good condition clothing and shoes for $1.00, plus racks of great Designer clothing at great prices. Most childrens clothing is $1. and babies 50 cents per item. Well worth a check out if you are in town tomorrow. (Shop is next to Stanton Print , Karamu Road, close to Heretaunga St East.) Would have put up their poster, but i'm sorry, I don't know how to do it.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

New neighbour
Okay folks, if you feed your animals outside, you might want to rethink that. We have new nocturnal neighbours, inside Havelock North.
There is a very well fed brush tail possum up the pōhutukawa tree in my garden.
I don’t know where it’s come in from, but it’s in the middle of a residential neighbourhood, so keep an eye on your pet doors, open windows and doors and pet food.
I’ll be notifying council and DOC tomorrow.
