Handy Events & Entertainment guide
Hi Neighbours,
Ever since the lamented demise of Palmy's community paper The Tribune last year, friends and acquaintances have said how much they missed the publication and its curated coverage of community stories.

So, in response here's a hastily concocted trial of goodies taking place around Manawatū Thursday to Wednesday January 17 - 23.
It is not a booking site, just an overview and handy reference that can work alongside complementary sites such as eventfinda and other official theatre and event booking outlets.
What do you think? Is this useful? Is it worth continuing and perhaps expanding
