A plethora of positives!
You could say last night was a meeting of "firsts".
We enjoyed Nakhia's and Pete's clear and thought-provoking Icebreaker speeches; welcomed Ishani and Pete, our newest members, to the club; and learned from Norbert's introduction to the role of Grammarian, which is new for our club.
Prepared speeches persuaded us we could redefine reality, be liberated from attachment and be better off running nowhere. That's part of the beauty of Toastmasters - broadening your horizons :)
Hope to see you on 22 June for our 2nd birthday celebration! 🎂

Loki: lost 3 leg cat from Te Wharepōuri Street
Loki is up to his old tricks and has gone awol again. The last time was around 2.5 years ago when he was found inside a wall cavity in the Satan Slaves compound. He is an 8 year old lilac Burmese. This means he’s a kind of beige colour. With amber eyes. He’s missing his right front leg.
He’s likely to be shut in a shed or under a house in either Te Wharepouri street, Luxford or until between Luxford and te Whareouri St.
If you can take a look in any shut sheds, outside laundries or under houses cavities. Any 3 leg cat who can make his way into a roof cavity and then down into a wall can get stuck anywhere.
The Great Wall is closing
The Great Wall Takeaways is closing this Tuesday for the last time, as the owners are retiring. The Hataitai Hot Bread Hop is moving in from next door.
