I almost never see cars in the bus lane but WCC must think there's an opportunity to make some money.
I bet the camera crew is costing at least $300/hour but it's only your money, so, whatever!
Be warned, bus lanes bring fines!

Hello lovely locals.

Ema Frost's KINTSUGI WORKSHOP on Saturday, 24th June in Wellington is fast approaching. Sunday is booked out! She has limited spots available in the morning and afternoon so make sure to book before they sell out.

Have you ever wanted to try Kintsugi.... It's an ancient Japanese art form where you fix broken pottery with gold - making its imperfections its beauty. A truly wonderful philosophy to live by. If you are interested please go to: tinyurl.com...

I'm sure there's a few of you out there that have been saving a broken piece not knowing quite what to do with it, and if not Ema has plenty of back ups. So just bring yourselves and have some fun.

Bring a friend and make some Kintsugi magic together.
