<strong>Waikato</strong> <strong>Business</strong> <strong>News</strong> even extends its Out and About pages to the Channel Islands. Mary Anne Gill filed this shot from<br />

an Anzac Day service in Guernsey showing the Dean of Guernsey Tim Barker, whose wife Judy is Australian, leading the<br />

Anzac Day commemorations attended by about 50 people including several ex pat Kiwis at Fort George. Lieutenant Governor<br />

Richard Cripwell, waits to lay his wreath at left, and New Zealand flag bearer Annaliese Sanders, 14, behind at right.<br />

Night owl Carol Dix has delivered newspapers around the<br />

<strong>Waikato</strong> for more than 40 years and has also been a stalwart<br />

of Cambridge Pony Club since she was 10. She is now district<br />

commander and was one of the organisers at Leamington Pony<br />

Club’s Easter gymkhana last month. Photo: Mary Anne Gill.<br />

<strong>Waikato</strong> author David Farrell published his second book Where the Birds don’t Fly<br />

last month and took the opportunity to give one to ex-pat reviewer Shirley Field<br />

in Cambridge to take back to the Staines Mac Book Group in Middlesex, United<br />

Kingdom for them to critique. <br />

The first of six new EV buses set to service Waipā was launched in Cambridge last month. Welcoming it<br />

outside Cambridge i-Site are, from left, Waipā District Council’s group manager service delivery, Dawn Inglis;<br />

Destination Cambridge general manager Ruth Crampton; <strong>Waikato</strong> Regional Council public transport manager<br />

Trudi Knight; and Waipā District councillor Roger Gordon. <br />

Highlight after the Waipā citizenship awards is the group shot in front of the iconic<br />

Cambridge Town Hall. Getting 104 people plus mayor Susan O’Regan is always a challenge<br />

but worth it as this shot last month shows. <br />
