Ummmmmm?!?!?! That's not ideal.

I love them. They have such an unnecessary number of petals and they smell delish

Aren't they gorgeous? When my sister moved to Tāmaki she left them with me with *strict* instructions not to let them die (the plants not these specific roses). Honestly, she chose the wrong sister for the job but I'm doing pretty well. Neglect seems to suit them 😅

I use bookmory but I only really want to keep a list of books I've read so can't tell you much about the data. It seems to work pretty well and has most NZ authored books. There's a very occasional prompt to rate or an ad but not enough to be irritating or to make me need the premium version.

Congratulations! They do indeed look amazing. Do you love the smell of fresh printing? 😍

The questions are very generic and unlikely to elicit anything with much depth but you can just use the space to write your thoughts instead of responding to the literal questions.

You could think about anything from 'pls make applying for funding easier' to 'why haven't you increased your grant budget from 4% when the community, social and arts sectors are in crisis' to "pls fund overheads ffs'. For example.

It's hard!

Not precisely cake but if you're after takeaway, Spelt (Highgate) has some good pastries and the coffee is usually good and Side On has evolved into Big Lizard (Vogel St) and Roslyn bread technology (also highgate). Perc plaza or central usually have a cake. The desserts at No7 are cake-adjacent.

She's a dear little angry puss. I bust her all the time complaining to people walking past the house about how terrible her life is. They all fall for it.

Neither. Nor are quite a few others judging by my inbox and the Ōtepoti Community Builders inbox...

We've heard unofficially there's a proposal to council to vote on next week for staff to approve/decline apps <$5k but that doesn't mean representation in decision making and also unclear if it's temporary or ongoing. As one of our profesh theatre people said today, it's a cluster*ck

Ridiculous - imagine living like that!

All at once. Maybe it could just pick one and go with that for a whole day? Or two days for a little treat?
