Mothers Day Sale at Craft Potters in Hope
Pssst, don't tell anyone, Craft Potters are having another huge sale on 3rd May at 202 Ranzau Road in Hope. Doors will be open from 10 am to 2 pm this time. Last time, at the pre-Xmas sale, doors were supposed to be open at 11 am but people started coming from 9.30 am onward!?! Since I had been in early to give the floors a quick wash, the early birds could come and browse and have first pick. This time I want a bit of a sleep in, so, psst, don't tell anyone! ;-)

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
