Hi Booklovers!
Well we are certainly living in interesting times. I must say I am having a little difficulty keeping up with the changing Covid regulations and am really only concerned with how I can safely run my book fairs. If the worst comes to the worst and I think I am symptomatic then I'll check the MOH website and follow their directions.

I have the dates for my Eureka Book Fairs for 2022 and suggest you diarise them:
4 – 13 March
3 – 12 June
2 – 11 September
2 – 11 December

So you see we have a book fair starting on Friday and our usual hours are 9am to 6pm. The Eureka Hall is on SH 26 between Hamilton and Morrinsville, on the corner of Hunter Road.

The Eureka Hall Committee met recently and decided that all hall hirers are now to require only persons with vaccination certificates and masks to enter the hall. Covid is spreading in Waikato so we all need to be careful. It would be appreciated if parents could supervise their little ones and ensure they don't run around the hall. Please maintain social distancing from people who are outside of your family or bubble. The first and last hours of the trading day are usually not so busy so you may want to try coming at different times.

Jennifer and I had an interesting time at Maramarua earlier this month. The locals were very supportive however the Aucklanders powered straight on to Coromandel or Tauranga without stopping. I am hoping to go back to Maramarua in October and have plans to get them to stop ...

I have been buying in quite a lot of fiction from my purple table authors lately so you may notice an increase in some of their prices but by paying for these books I believe that I am able to supply you with a greater range of books. I have managed to obtain quite a few books by Lee Child and some by Nora Roberts, both of whom are very popular. I get asked occasionally for Terry Brooks' books so I have managed to get a boxful from him.

You may even notice some books with my yellow stickers in the painted boxes if I think that those buyers may not look for their authors on the purple table.

Over the last few years I have often been asked for books on fishing and, with a lot of effort, I have managed to get a collection of books and DVDs together under Sport – Fishing.

Earlier in the week I went to Auckland and collected about 40 boxes, at least six of which contain children's books. Then a couple of days ago I went to Mangakino for another 25 or so boxes, and I still have a lot of unopened boxes in my shed. I also like to get odd (cheap) lots from Trade Me because that is often where I find the older, rather interesting books. Of course I still get emails offering me books so they are most welcome too.

Amongst the books collected from Mangakino were about 15 boxes of small Maori books. I believe they were from a school so there are quantities of each book but they are children's readers, and all I checked were in Maori. They would be excellent for a kura or any organisation teaching Maori to all ages. I have managed to get all 15 heavy boxes onto the stage. I am hoping to sell the Maori books as a bulk lot before my book fair starts. They need to be sold and brought down off the stage by midday on Thursday so I can set up my purple table books. Please email me back if you are interested and we can agree a time to view.

I will email you on Wednesday or Thursday with the time that I am opening for my subscribers on Thursday but remember that I will stay open until 8pm on Thursday night.

I look forward to seeing you at my Book Fair at Eureka from Friday 4th to Sunday 13th March.

Best wishes
Trudi
