Highlights include Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint furniture painting demos by Troupes Vintage at 12 & 2pm and a surprise flash mob swing dance performance by the Grammophone Gang!
Gelato, a pop-up bakery and coffee caravan will provide sustenance and old-fashioned games such as quoits and croquet will keep the kids entertained.
Enter the raffle to win a SPECTACULAR prize hamper of vintage goodies and vouchers from Junk & Disorderly, Cockspurs Vintage and Yvonne Sanders Antiques!
Learn the history of this historic homestead built in 1863 and the lives of its inhabitants the Kerr Taylors. This event is part of the Auckland Heritage Festival 2019 with the theme of 'Journeys'.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?
A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
