Would anyone be interested in a box of old (pre-decimalization) knitting patterns that belonged to my mother, a professional knitwear designer and instructress? I need to declutter but these are just too interesting to throw in the bin.

"Here's a twofer for my 2022 list. A pied stilt/poaka (Himantopus leucocephalus) and a South Island pied oystercatcher/tōrea (Haematopus finschi) keeping each other company at Sandfly Bay in Dunedin as the Sun goes down. Showing you don't even need to be the same species to get along - they remind me of me and my husband - he's the skinny one dozing off while I'm talking. Birds #27 and #28 for 2022."
I was saddened to read of the death of Peter Neilson, a former MP for Miramar 1981-1990 (as the Rongotai electorate was known at the time).
Peter was a kind, caring and extremely clever man.
Gone too soon at just 67. Sincere condolences to his wife Megan and whānau. RIP, Peter.
