Speaking at Plimmerton Rotary on 14 June, he explained how different the atmosphere had become since the arrival of Covid, which in his view had preoccupied the Government for much too long. He felt the daily press conferences had been unnecessary and were disruptive to the normal process of Government. They had consumed a large proportion of the Government’s resources during that time.
There was a feeling among many New Zealanders that the Government had spread too much gloom and doom, largely ignoring the positive sides of life.
Mr. Malpass noted that the main story now was runaway inflation, affecting the price of petrol, groceries, and building materials to name a few. The National Party had highlighted the alarming rise in crime as another major issue that it believed was not being adequately addressed by the Government.

Hi, does anyone know why the new hairdresser on Hurley st has been closed for 2 weeks. Vish was such a good hairdresser and all the comments that were posted were good. I hope they haven’t closed down already although the sign is still up.

The Proton Suprima-S GXR has a turbo 1.6L. engine, 7-speed CVT automatic gears, plus sports mode and paddle gears, Lotus handling/suspension, auto headlights, auto windscreen wipers, infotainment system, leather seats, reversing camera and front sensors as well and loads more features.etc.
Features of the GXR are best summarised in the attached infomercial video link: youtu.be...
Obviously the warranty described on this infomercial has expired.
The Micro-SD card slot (which housed the NZ/AU GPS navigation micro-SD card) became faulty and was taken out by a local auto-electrician. Replacement slot can be ordered from the Malaysia infotainment manufacturer apparently (I have the contact details). so at present, the GPS Sat-Nav. not working, but ALL other features of the infotainment system (as described in the infomercial) are working well (eg: Android, WiFi, bluetooth, DVD/CD player, radio, etc.). Overall, really great car, excellent road hugging and sporty as well as comfortable. Never had any problems with it and regularly serviced. Just had a new W.O.F. and service done (June 2022).

I love attention and cuddles and in addition to provide people with lots of love, I enjoy going for walks where I can show everybody how beautiful I actually am. My forever home would be a home where in the beginning someone would be by my side most of the time. Then I can get used to your routine and my new environment. I would benefit from continuing my basic training, which I've started at SPCA. I've done well so far with getting used to new people and new routine, but I need my new owner to continue the training with me, so I can become an even smarter doggo. I can be very shy with new people, particularly tall men or loud strangers. My new home would need to be a home with confident older kids or teenagers. My new owners will need to introduce me to new people slowly, as the world can be scary at times, and I haven't had too many people to trust in my previous life. A home with a confident, patient dog may work well for me. I enjoy playing with other social dogs. Unfortunately I am not suited to a home with cats/small animals."

Music aficionados everywhere appreciate and love the complexities of top-flight chamber music. This is music written for and played by small groups of musicians, each instrument having its own part to play within the whole, the result being the beautiful sound we hear. In earlier times “chamber” music was just that – music played in people's homes for their own enjoyment. Nowadays, chamber music is heard in concert halls and on recordings too, but it still works best when the musicians are close together and close to their audience to appreciate the live sound.
Ghost Trio is a group of such musicians – Monique Lapins (violin), Ken Ichinose (cello) and Gabriela Glapska (piano) and they will be appearing soon at the Paekakariki Memorial Hall as part of the 2022 Mulled Wine Concert series. Organiser Mary Gow is delighted to have such a fine group playing on the Kapiti Coast. “They are a fairly new group” she says “formed in 2019, they have been getting rave reviews wherever they go”. The group has recently toured nationwide for Chamber Music New Zealand and were commended for their elan and unfailing attention to musical detail.
The trio is international in outlook – Monique is the second violinist of the NZ String Quartet and lectures at the New Zealand School of Music, Ken is a graduate of the UK's Royal Academy of Music and Gabriela is from Poland, where she received her first degree, later studying for her Ph.D degree in music at the NZSM. She is the rehearsal pianist for the Royal New Zealand Ballet. The group will present an interesting mix of music at its concert on Sunday 19 June. The great masters will be presented: Beethoven and Brahms will be featured, of course, but along with these will be more modern composers – Eve de Castro-Robinson's “At Water's Birth” and the Piano Trio of Fauré.
“A feast of sound for the discerning listener” is how the organiser describes the concert. The venue will be the lovely sea-front Paekakariki Memorial Hall which offers stunning views of Kapiti Island to match the wonderful sounds within. AND FREE MULLED WINE.
====================
Mulled Wine Concerts present GHOST TRIO: Monique Lapins (violin), Ken Ichinose (cello), Gabriela Glapska (piano) . Paekakariki Memorial Hall, 96 The Parade, Paekakariki 5034 on SUNDAY 19 June 2022.
