Bringing a bouquet of romantic songs to Waipawa on Valentine s Day will be singers from Singing School New Zealand who will be in concert at the Centralines Summer Series in Nelly Jull Park, Sunday February 14. Our singers have a great repertoire of songs to entertain the audience and many truly romantic numbers for this special concert, says Singing School NZ chairman and local musical director Helen Walker.
Just like an AFL list manager, you only have limited funds to work with when selecting your squad. A $10 million salary cap sounds a lot but it will disappear fast, so look for players who provide value for money as well as scoring potential. Players returning from injury are often attractively priced, but come with some risk, so you don t want too many. You need a balance of superstars, mid-range players and kids who are ready to emerge. Note: You can make as many trades as you like before Round 1, so decisions made now aren t final. Expect to make some changes as we get hints on form, injuries and likely Round 1 selections over the pre-season. It s possible to save a partially-finished team, but make sure you have a full squad of 30 players saved before Round 1 lockout to be part of the action.
Tell us your story as a bookseller
I had a part-time job in a bookshop during my university holidays. Over 20 years later, my job as a full-time English teacher was changed to being a full-time Dad on Shared Parental Leave. A glass of red wine and an inspirational conversation led to the idea of The London Bookman, a virtual Bookman subscription that I could develop and grow whilst pushing a pram around local independent bookshops.
Four years later, and two children, and The London Bookman is still a virtual book subscription service, but my clients are global, and range from some very lucky five year olds, to a High Court Judge, and a member of the Royal Household. It’s still a small and personalised business, but with my social media presence and personal recommendation, the community of London Bookman readers is continually growing.

Subscriber only Geelong s ability to win the ball and use it effectively from inside the contest to outside the contest has the Cats boasting the premier midfield of the competition, according to former Collingwood and Carlton player Mick McGuane. The Pies premiership player and dual All-Australian ranks the Cats engine room at No.1 in the league. McGuane based his assessment on strength at stoppages and a balance between contested and uncontested possessions, and he looked for effective ball-users and good decision-makers. Also, importantly, the need to be good transition runners.
