(Later renamed Fontenoy St). I spent a lot of time there and knew the large property well. From about the age of 9, I used to mow the lawns, initially with a hand mower. To do this, I would run across Auckland from my home in Three Kings or later, from Epsom. From Three Kings, I occasionally pushed a trolley containing my younger sister over to 4th Avenue and back. How different our society was in the 1940s! Can you imagine parents would consider it normal today? I took this photo of my grandparents with a box camera about 1945 and developed the film in the washhouse.

If you’d like to make those dollars work harder for our local communities, consider choosing small. Households spend more than $110 billion with big businesses each year. Shifting a portion of that toward small, local retailers can make a huge difference for the wider small-business economy.
