Good People

For Thursday, the 9th November at 6pm, we have the fascinating doco on the Second World War Artist, Eric Ravilious - Drawn To War.

Please note: This film is being shown once only. Don't miss it.

Our 8pm screening is the uplifting French film, On the Wandering Paths.

Thursday November 9th at 6pm
Eric Ravilious: Drawn To War - ONE NIGHT ONLY
(2023, Doco, UK, 88 mins)
Cast: Alan Bennett, Robert Macfarlane and Tamsin Greig.

Eric Ravilious was killed whilst working as Official War Artist in a plane crash in 1942. His life was as enigmatic as his artworks. This documentary brings to life the work of a unique and amazing talent and is told in Ravilious’ own words through previously unseen private correspondence.

"Exhilarating, enthralling and outstandingly beautiful. A revelation.”
- The Observer

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
