2022 wild birds of NZ calendars and kererū prints

Louise from Woburn

Very exciting - the 2022 calendars and kererū prints are just back from the printers. I'll start getting them organised to ship out tomorrow. The printer said he used the same 270gsm fancy textured art card for the kererū prints that he uses for Weta Workshops art prints, so they are almost famous by association. There are only 20 and Caitlin will number and sign them.

Now for the exciting bit - the 10 winners, plucked from the calendar pre-orders, of the prints are Penny Williamson, Margaret Watt, Jana Sanders, Jim Norris, Tania Moir, Alice Christian, Margie Delaney, Sharon Major, Karen Ho, and Natasha Jelbert.

The remaining 10 prints are $50 each with the money going to help with the cost of Caitlin's study at VUW.

If anyone else that hasn't pre-ordered would like a calendar, I have 20 extra printed. First in first served, they are $28 each plus postage at cost or collect from Woburn, Lower Hutt. Email: louise@louisethomas.co.nz

Thank you so much to everyone for supporting my venture. I'll do it all again next year!

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
