Fabric -A-Brac ...on this Saturday in Greytown!
Fabric-a-brac is a fun fabric and sewing supplies market where you can shop for vintage and modern sewing and upholstery fabric, patterns, haberdashery and more. It brings the sewing community together to share stashes, stories and delight in our mutual love of textiles.
Fabric-a-brac Greytown is held on Wellington Anniversary, in conjunction with the annual Sidewalk Sale in Greytown (incredible deals on one-offs, samples, and surplus stock from locally-owned stores) so it’s a great excuse to have a trip to Wairarapa! It’s held in the Greytown Town Hall on Main St. 10am -12pm.
Fabric-a-brac is volunteer-run, and is a fundraiser for hospice – in Greytown this is Hospice Wairarapa. All profits from this event are donated to their work.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael
