Inattention on the road

Kathie from Opaheke

To the bloke who thought it was a good idea to fly down Cape Hill Road, Pukekohe at 8am this morning drifting on to the other side of the road.

Did you stop and think how the people in the vehicle you were heading towards felt when seeing you on their side at speed. A mum dropping her three children off to school to see your Audi heading towards them. Whether is was distraction from your phone or just lack of skills on the road spare a thought for others. A mother very upset at what had happened could have ended tragically. Pay attention.

Hello Drury Library friends,

I hope that you are keeping warm and dry as this latest burst of winter weather buffets us, we have had some feedback that some of our users would like to use the library on Saturdays but that our current hours don’t fit in with their other activities. Accordingly we have decided to trial extending our Saturday hours, remaining open from 10.30am until 2pm starting 8th June. We will evaluate the uptake and based on this, continue or revert to our current open hours.

Thanks and we look forward to having you join us at your community library, as always please feel free to provide any feedback especially how you feel the proposed new Saturday hours will impact your use of the library.

Regards
Drury Community Library
