I had the pleasure of attending the gala night for 'Its my party and I'll die if I want to' at the Octagon Theatre directed by Kirsten van Eck. What a fantastic play. All the cast were brilliant and there was plenty of laughter to be heard. This is a must see show.

Pinocchio
Italy, 2019, Comedy/Drama
110 mins, Rated PG 13
Cast: Roberto Benigni
Roberto Benigni (Life is Beautiful) plays Geppetto, a woodcarver who creates a puppet but then something magical happens. The puppet can talk, run and eat like any young boy. Geppetto calls him Pinocchio and raises him as his own son.
But Pinocchio is easily led astray and finds it hard to always be good. So he repeatedly finds himself in trouble as he is tricked, kidnapped and chased by bandits. All the while, his guardian, the fairy tries to convince Pinocchio that he'll never realise his dream of becoming a real boy until he changes his ways for good. But first, he has a really big fish to deal with.
With ground breaking live action set against a backdrop of stunning Italian locations, Pinocchio brings alive a world of true mystery and wonder.
The most convincing, funny and touching live-action screen adaptation of Carlo Collodi’s remarkable children’s tale yet. - Screen International

Recognising excellence, leadership and innovation in the New Zealand utility sectors, the NZ Compare Awards are back for the 6th year and in response to consumer demand, we have introduced MOBILE Awards for the first time.
As the boundaries between the utility industries continue to blur the organisers have responded to growing demand to increase the categories and industries celebrated by the NZ Compare Awards and will now recognise excellence and achievement within New Zealand’s BROADBAND, ENERGY and MOBILE sectors for the first time.
Award categories are consumer driven and informed by the 300,000 Kiwis who use NZ Compare websites each month. Winning carries real gravitas with the Kiwi consumer and the awards represent an opportunity to be confident in the talent and vision your company has worked so hard towards. This significant event will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services across these essential industries.
The NZ Compare Awards are supported by a wide range of companies including Movinghub, Vector Metering, Chorus, realestate.co.nz and Neighbourly. The prestigious awards will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services in their industries. With a range of different categories including best home and mobile provider, best customer support, fastest service, best rural provider and best broadband innovation.
Winning an NZ Compare Award depends on a combination of criteria. These include consumer surveys and reviews on the NZ Compare websites and decisions from our expert judging panel.
"Judged by an independent panel of New Zealand experts and presented at our gala awards event, the NZ Compare Awards provide a unique stage on which we recognize and reward the achievements of the New Zealand utility sectors." said Gavin Male, CEO of NZ Compare.
So what do you think? Give a shout out to your favourite utility provider here - not just for doing their job... we want to hear about those that go above and beyond! Who should be a winner?

Delicious,
France, 2022, Comedy (French with English subtitles)
105 mins, Rated M, Cast: Grégory Gadebois, Isabelle Carré.
This historically-based comedy tells of a gifted chef and his unlikely protégé who yearn to free themselves from servitude.
In France in the late 18th Century, gastronomy is strictly the domain of the aristocrats. So much so, the prestige of a noble house is entirely dependent on the quality and reputation of its meals.
So, when the talented but prideful cook Manceron (Gadebois) serves an unapproved dish of his own creation at a dinner hosted by the self-entitled Duke of Chamfort, Manceron is immediately dismissed.
With nowhere else to go, Manceron retreats with his son to a regional inn, where soup is the only meal served. But when a mysterious woman arrives and offers to pay to become his apprentice, the stage is set for a wildly enjoyable tale of rekindled passion, mentorship and revenge... not to mention the creation of France's very first restaurant.
Joining the ranks of films such as Big Night, Chocolat and Babette's Feast in its joyous depiction of the preparation and love of fine cuisine, DELICIOUS is just that.
