The restaurant, which we have visited several times, is located in the historic National Hotel in the heart of Cambridge, adjacent to the Town Hall and overlooking the Town Clock.
The original hotel on the corner of Alpha Street & Lake Street was The Alpha Hotel, built in 1866 and destroyed by fire in 1912. The current version of the National Hotel ("The Nash" to Cambridge locals) was originally built in 1913 and, with a few modifications over the decades, has retained its elegant art deco style.
The quiet elegance and generous dimensions of the building enhance the contemporary, relaxed style of the restaurant. For decades the National Hotel has been pivotal in the social life of the residents of Cambridge. Alpha Street Kitchen & Bar carries on the tradition of a welcoming place to meet at any time of the day. www.alphast.co.nz...

If you are in the market for a new pair of curtains or are potentially looking at getting your existing curtains lined, this blog will cover why it is advantageous for you to be lining your curtains, especially this winter.

Insulation: There are many different materials that can be used for the lining of your curtains, and each one can provide a slightly different result in regards to insulation, etc. For instance, polycotton lining (cotton and polyester) is naturally resistant to heat and still allows a good flow of air, making it suitable for warmer environments and even winter as it can provide reasonable insulation.

When simply looking for insulation for the winter period (or if you reside in an area which is typically colder year-round) it may be more beneficial to look at curtain linings such as the blackout and dim lining or thermal lining. Blackout lining is made from a thicker material, and is, therefore, more beneficial for those who are looking for more of a private and insulated lining. This fabric also allows you to keep in all of the heat in the winter period, and keep out the heat in the summer period, due to the sun being blocked out more from the dimmer and thicker fabric. An additional benefit of this is that you will have a difference in the amount of noise that enters our room/house (wherever the lining is applied).



Visually Appealing: Depending on what fabric you decide on, many of the lining options can add to your room. For example, bonded interlining is....

Rates rises could be huge....

Karen from Welcome Bay

Everyone in Tauranga is urged to make submissions to Council for the Long Term Plan. We are not happy that the Commissioners are suggesting the rates rises should average 16.9% this year, with forecast increases in the following years resulting in a total 140% increase over 10 years!!!

Everyone in Tauranga is urged to make submissions to Council for the Long Term Plan. We are not happy that the Commissioners are suggesting the rates rises should average 16.9% this year, with forecast increases in the following years resulting in a total 140% increase over 10 years!!!
Look at Wellington - the aging infrastructure is causing serious water and sewage problems, they have had sewage leaks and water geysers erupting in the streets. But Wellington Council have just decided that they shouldn't increase their rates by a "whopping" 16%, saying that would have been "completely unrealistic and a step too far". Instead they have decided on 13.5%, still high for those on fixed incomes.
We think that the Tauranga Council needs to seriously reconsider how best to manage the situation here. If you agree, please let the Council know.
