Bourne to Win Tuesdays
Indoor sports, a warm bar, and questionable skills — it’s where grown-ups go to play indoors on a winter Tuesday.
Forget the couch, skip the Netflix scroll, and come where the lights are on, the bar’s open, and the competition is... mildly competitive.
Every Tuesday from 4pm to 8pm (and sometimes later), Eastbourne Bowling Club becomes your winter hideaway – warm, relaxed, and full of low-stakes, high-fun competition.
There may be no medals, but there’s pool, darts, cards, indoor bowls, bar snacks, and the occasional victory dance that probably shouldn’t happen. Come for a quiet pint, stay for a showdown at the dartboard, or challenge someone to chess and pretend it’s tactical genius, not luck. And yes, we do laugh at people trying to get up off the indoor bowls mat.
The bar’s open, the snacks are out, and the doors are open to everyone – members, locals, newcomers, and anyone just looking for something to do on a Tuesday.
WHERE
Eastbourne Bowling Club – 179 Muritai Road
(Down the right of way opposite Muritai School)
WHEN
Tuesdays from 4pm – 8pm
(or until someone demands a rematch)
No need to book. No need to bowl. Just show up.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
