6 Thursday May 19 2022 GREAT Autumn READS INSTORE! NEW RELEASES Dogs in Early New Zealand Photographs Introduction by Mike White Adorable and sometimes surprising historic images of dogs and their owners This entertaining selection of over 100 photos of New Zealand dogs reveals some of the more curious ways in which they have appeared in photographic collections from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Dogs named Terror, Betsey Jane, Floss and Erebus appear alongside canines whose names are longer known. The photos range from carefully staged studio portraits to New Zealand landscapes. The photographs take the reader across the towns and landscapes of Aotearoa New Zealand, and the text profiles many of the photographers and studios that flourished prior to the First World War. A charming mix of history and whimsy, this beautiful book makes the perfect gift for any dog lover. Yum - Nadia Lim YUM! is for anyone who wants to feed the family nutritious, delicious food.

Freezing Order a true story of russian Money laundering, state-sponsored Murder,and surviving vladimir Putin’s Wrath by Bill Browder When Bill Browder’s young Russian lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, was beaten to death in a Moscow jail, Browder made it his life’s mission to go after his killers and make sure they faced justice. The first step of that mission was to uncover who was behind the $230 million tax refund scheme that Magnitsky was killed over. As Browder and his team tracked the money as it flowed out of Russia through the Baltics and Cyprus and on to Western Europe and the Americas, they were shocked to discovered that Vladimir Putin himself was a beneficiary of the crime. As law enforcement agencies began freezing the money, Putin retaliated. At once a financial caper, an international adventure and a passionate plea for justice, Freezing Order is a timely and stirring morality tale about how one man can take on one of the most ruthless villains in the world. Cracking Open the Nest Egg How to make your retirement savings last the distance by Martin Hawes Planning for retirement can be a scary thought, whether it is just around the corner or years in the future. Martin Hawes, one of New Zealand’s best-known experts on personal finance, answers all of the questions that may be keeping you up at night: How much will I need to retire? Can I ever afford to stop working? How do I make sure my money lasts as long as I do? Working out how you can achieve a regular monthly retirement income is more difficult than it used to be. Historically low interest rates (despite the current blip) plus longer life expectancy means the old method of parking your nest egg in a savings account and living off the interest is no longer an option. Hawes guides you step-by-step through the planning process, showing you how you can safely create a regular income for the rest of your life. Ideals Are Like Stars the dame yvette Williams story By angela Walker The first New Zealand woman to win an Olympic gold medal, a feat not repeated for forty years. Ideals Are Like Stars is the remarkable true story of Yvette Williams, a trailblazing young athlete who defied the odds to win gold in the long jump at the Helsinki Olympics in 1952. Ignoring the pressure to abandon her dreams and become a housewife, Yvette’s sports career is a highlight reel of newly set records which propelled her into the spotlight. Well-known for her rigorous training, down-to-earth nature and sense of humour, Yvette was the epitome of the Kiwi sporting hero - humble, hardworking and dedicated - who won the hearts of the nation. This is a long overdue celebration of an extraordinary sporting life and a highly engaging chronicle of a young woman’s quest for excellence. 1005 Ferry rd Ph 384 2063 CLOSED SUNDAY while stocks last (see instore for terms and conditions) Please stay saFe everyone!

The cycleway connects Sumner via the pathway to the central city, passing through Linwood. It has one final section through Moncks Bay still to be completed as part of the pathway.
