Sleep is one of the most important aspects of human health. Without quality sleep, our bodies are not able to heal and rejuvenate themselves, and our brains struggle to process emotions and store memories.
One of the biggest factors in getting a good night’s sleep is the comfort of your mattress. If you regularly wake up with muscle or joint stiffness, interrupted sleep, or your mattress is making more noise than usual then it's time to replace and refresh.

Experts recommend a change of mattress every 8-10 years, so if you haven't changed your mattress within those years then now is a good time to do so.

Investing in your dream sleep can pay a huge factor for your health, and once you’ve found the right mattress the thought of replacing it will be the last thing on your mind.
A mattress is a long-term hold, not a life-long hold.

Good People

For Thursday, the 10th November at 6pm, WFS will be screening the Japanese film, Come Back Any Time.

Our 8pm session will be the Swedish comedy, The Jonsson Gang.

Re COVID-19: While the government has eased restrictions, mask wearing and observing social distancing is still welcome at our film nights.

Please show courtesy to others and their health needs, particularly around the bar and food areas. Thank you.

Come Back Any Time
Japan, 2021, Documentary
(English Subtitles)
Run time: 89 mins, Rated G

Ramen master, Masamoto Ueda and his wife, Kazuko have run their tiny Tokyo ramen shop, Bizentei for more than 40 years. During that time, many now-devoted customers have joined them in creating an intimate cornerstone of the community.

On the weekends, Masamoto and Kazuko venture together across the lush Japanese countryside. Their ongoing mission is to harvest gourmet pears, dig up bamboo shoots and wild mountain yams as ingredients for their dishes.

Sadly, Masamoto knows he must retire someday. Using early footage and archival records, this documentary captures Masamoto's early life when starting the business, his passion for cooking and his loyalty and love for his customers.

One of the sweetest and most enjoyable films of the year. It will restore your faith in humanity. Graeme Tuckett - Stuff.co.nz

View the trailer at: www.youtube.com...

Tickets: Door sales only. Price: $10 for WFS members, $15 for non members.

Cash only please - no Eftpos/credit card services available.
