Unsolicited Mail!

It comes from members of the Jehovah Witness, the latest being from 'Kelly' of Box 9081, Bell Block. You are entitled to your views and beliefs, but DON'T try stuffing them down my throat! If I want religion (and I defintely don't!!!!) then I know where to go to find it. This is as bad as the door knocking, cease and desist!

Thanks to the brave and quick actions of these members of the public (pictured centre and centre right) – an offender who was trying to make a getaway after stealing money from a Henderson dairy was stopped and swiftly arrested. 👏

Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.

He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.

Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.

He was then arrested and taken into custody.

A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.

The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.

A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

The Gift of Words

Lel Crosthwaite-Scott from PublishMe | Self-Publishing Made Easy

Here's Corry van Hattum at 89 years old as a newly-published author.

She had written various short stories over the years and they were quietly gathered together by her daughter and secretly made into a book by PublishMe as a Christmas present. What a great idea! If you have a relative in a similar position, has maybe written something he or she hasn't the patience to publish, why not take away the pain and do it for them? We can get old typed or handwritten manuscripts into a printable format, as was the case here, so all you'd have to do is to get the pages to us. If you're in New Plymouth, we could even pick them up from you.
Don't wait until your relative has passed on to publish their book - let them experience the joy of holding it in their hands. Get in touch today and we can discuss the next steps. You can reach us at www.publishme.co.nz... or email lel@businesswritingservices.co.nz or giles@businesswritingservices.co.nz or phone on (06) 7530021. Chat soon! Lel Scott.
