Alberton & church/graveyard tours & tea, Auckland Heritage Festival 2020!

Rendell McIntosh from Alberton

Join us as part of the Auckland Heritage Festival 2020 to explore the wider world of Alberton's Kerr Taylors!

In guided tours at two historic churches and graveyards, discover the Alberton connection and some of the family secrets contained within their walls!

Tour one at charming Category 1 listed, Gothic Revival St Andrew's, Epsom will reveal an intriguing, recently uncovered twist in the Alberton saga to do with an elopement. Tour two takes place in the hood at St Luke's Mt Albert, where almost all the Kerr Taylors are buried, and gives an insight into their roles as founding patrons.

Both tours are followed by tea & scones back at Alberton at your own place with plenty of time to meander in the house and garden!

Tickets $25. Bookings are essential as places are limited and will be further limited if Auckland remains in Level 2. For all the details please see the Neighourly or Facebook listings - links below.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Share in the comments below if this has ever happened to you.
