Movies in Mapua
Hi, all regular Cinema goers,
and to any new people who think they might like to go to the movies which we’ve been showing for the last 6+ years
This time there will be a classic:
Grease the movie!
Showing @ 6:30pm Sunday 20th November at Mapua's popular hall
Well, we all know the story of Grease, the movie, and we are going show it as our last movie of ’22 to acknowledge the beauty, the energy and the enthusiasm of the young and as a tribute to Olivia Newton John
We’d love you to come along and farewell Olivia: Sing, and dance and laugh in her honour, she’s been a treasure, we’ve all grown to admire throughout her rocky life
We’d also like to thank our sponsors :The Sprig and Fern, and also The Architecture Studio, who have supported the Packhouse Cinema since our beginnings— its been a massive help, as have of course all you great movie fans who have weathered some”interesting” ??? movies
This time, just come and enjoy, wear your leathers if you like, or a blond wig, or have your comb poking out of your back pocket (if you’re a guy!!!) skintight jeans, and bring your singing voice. Sit back and think how lucky we have all once been, so young and carefree, and mostly better looking than we are now !!!!!
WITH ANY LUCK THERE MAY BE CE CREAMS?
All income from this event will go towards the Mapua Community Hall!
Cheers,
Peter & Di, Reinhard & Angelika
As usual some of us meet at the Sprig & Fern before the movie for bite and/or a dring. A table will be reserved
Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
