They were there to plant violas in the garden bed, It used to be done safely by 2 girls from the council with one ute and if it wasn't so money wasting it would have been comical, Mayor Vince Cocurullo you need to tell your CEO to pull his head in. 2 girls and 1 ute used to do this job. The ute from Auckland City Council was here to direct traffic. Pull the soil out and fill with concrete and save the ratepayers some money please. Not a happy ratepayer. City safe you are a joke.

For Thursday, the 13th April at 6pm we are screening the Norwegian comedy, Everyone Hates Johan

Our 8pm screening will be the fascinating NZ doco, When the Cows come Home.

EVERYONE HATES JOHAN
Norway (English subtitles), 2022, Comedy, 93 mins, Rated M

Johan Grande's parents were patriotic Norwegians. During WW2, they risked their lives as they sabotaged the path of the invading Germans. In retrospect, the local community realised that the Grande family just really loved blowing stuff up.

In the present day, Johan is a small-town loner. He has a flair for horses and explosives. A combination that finds him in constant conflict with the community. Whilst he's comfortable not having a place in society, Johan's dream is to win over the love of his life, Solvor, who he accidentally blew up a bit when they were kids.

"Everybody Hates Johan is an entertaining slice of sometimes outrageous Scandinavian storytelling."
