Good Morning Well that was the shortest Dawn Parade and the one with the lest marching I have been too. Sharing the radio broadcast with two of my daughters standing at our front gate with a cross made of offcuts seemed appropriate. Many of our men had no cross. Here is a link to a short tribute to the men and women who served and the families that waited.
I apologise for the quality

Stories from the ANZACs

ANZAC Day will be marked a little differently this year. We’ll be warm and cosy at home and The Last Post won’t start until you press play. But one thing will be the same – remembrance.

ANZAC Day will be marked a little differently this year. We’ll be warm and cosy at home and The Last Post won’t start until you press play. But one thing will be the same – remembrance.

To help us remember those who served and understand what ‘to serve’ meant, Ryman recorded their ANZAC resident’s stories. Some are humorous, others are tragic and eye-opening, but they all offer insight into the courage, bravery, and determination required to serve.

What better way to remember than to read the memories of those who were there?

310 Aucklanders trespassed from libraries between Jan 2016 and Feb 2020

Stabbing staff with scissors, masturbating, being drunk and having sex are just some of the reasons why 310 people were booted and banned from Auckland Council libraries in the last four years.

Stabbing staff with scissors, masturbating, being drunk and having sex are just some of the reasons why 310 people were booted and banned from Auckland Council libraries in the last four years.

The majority of the trespasses were for threatening behaviour (51), abusive behaviour (41), theft (33), graffiti tagging (14) and intoxication (nine).

Five people were trespassed from several libraries for multiple offences or where serious types of offending posed significant risk to staff at other sites. Three people were banned from all libraries for offences listed in the article below.

Despite this, an Auckland Council spokeswoman said its libraries were safe and welcoming for Aucklanders wanting to connect, read and learn, and trespass notices were issued in "rare and isolated cases, with no evident patterns". Library staff were trained in conflict awareness.

This weekend as we reflect in our homes rather than at local Dawn Services we acknowledge the service of all those who served for New Zealand in Gallipoli, the Somme, Malaya or are out on patrol today with the United Nations.

We shall remember them this Anzac Day.

Remember to keep safe and all the best for the weeks ahead, my contact details are below if you need any assistance.

Here are a couple of links to the RSA please just give $5 that is only one of the 20 or 30 coffees we have not had this month. The RSA does a great job and really depends on Poppy day to help them look after all our returned servicemen. These guys and girls have been places, seen and done things and some have not come back. All so we can enjoy the life we had and will have again
