Hi everyone,
I have a few boxes of very old records that belonged to my father which I would like to pass on to someone who might be able to enjoy them. Some are 78's and consist of Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, a boxed set of Readers Digest Big Bands, plus lots more and some are 45's which consist of Cubby Checker, Michael Holliday and others. There are also CD's and some tapes.
I also have a record player which doesnt work, but does have speakers.
For more information and enquiries please phone Louise on 0212944053.

Poll: Increased speed limits - do we need them?

Annette Lambly-Robinson Reporter from Whangārei Leader

A 110kmh speed limit is to be introduced on some New Zealand roads.

Will an increased speed limit be a good thing for Kiwis?

Vote in the poll and have your say in the comments below.
