Scam alert: I just got an automated call to my cellphone, supposedly from Visa, telling me of two suspicious transactions on my credit card and then wanting me to push buttons to confirm or deny the transactions. I hung up, but others may need to be more careful. Scammers are tricky.

SQUARING THE CIRCLE
UK, 2023, Documentary, 101 mins
Cast: Paul McCartney, Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Peter Gabriel, Noel Gallagher and Glen Matlock.
This doco profiles the emergence of Hipgnosis, the designers behind some of the most iconic album covers in music history and interviews some of the artists they worked for.
Hipgnosis created the prism on Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon, the all-star jailbreak on McCartney and Wings’ Band on the Run and the kids climbing a mystical stone landscape for Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy.
Each cover would earn Hipgnosis more fans and more superstar clients and for studio founders, Aubrey Powell and Storm Thorgerson, each new cover they designed also needed to be a little weirder than the last…
For newcomers to the history of record album cover art, this film will come as a revelation. For old-timers, it will be a much loved trip down memory lane. - Rock and Roll Globe

Tickets: Door sales only. Price: $10 for WFS members, $15 for non members.
Cash only please - no Eftpos/credit card services available.

We've worked with other Northland Councils to produce an interactive map showing repair of slips in our Region.
It shows that we have successfully restored the majority of roads in Whangārei District and are focusing on 28 remaining sites, with an estimated cost of around $10 million total. These repairs are expected to take 2 - 3 years to complete.
