      <link>https://mailchi.mp/cc51ee3d5812/porirua-little-theatre-newsletter-2-17991924</link>
      <description>2025 is our 75th anniversary&#xD;
&#xD;
This month in our history ~ May 1968 Roots&#xD;
In our production of Roots Jenny Frost had to take an on-stage bath. During one performance the tub of water was accidentality overturned by an overzealous stage hand. Jenny was not the only one who wore the bath water that night. Director Bob Cater was not amused.&#xD;
&#xD;
It was noted in the Kapi Mana News that "As part of the society's policy of making theatre available to as wide an audience as possible, the admission price is only 45 cents."</description>

      <title>Commuting by bicycle in Wellington</title>
      <link>http://cyclingwellington.co.nz/2015/03/commuting-by-bicycle-in-wellington/</link>
      <description>In the past few years the number of people I see on bikes riding from Newtown to town in the morning has literally quadrupled. Unfortunately, many of the people I see stopped at the lights are on seriously terrible bikes.&#xD;
I’m see rusty, too-big or too-small mountain bikes with brakes that barely work and people look unconfident and uncomfortable on their bikes. Riding the wrong bike can actually make cycling seriously not fun.&#xD;
Recently several of my colleagues have gotten bicycles with the intention of cycling to work. I have noticed that they too seem to have missed some items that to me are essential for bike commuting.&#xD;

Coastguard Mana coordinated the on-water support of the kayak and waka ama legs of the Porirua Grand Traverse multi-sport event. We provided CRV Pelorus and a jetski to work alongside other rescue vessels from Titahi Bay Boating Club and Wellington Rowing Association in monitoring paddlers while they travelled from Whitireia Polytech, under the bridges and then back again.

The search for the missing swimmer at Titahi Bay resumed at 0800 on Sunday morning. A large search was performed by Coastguard Mana's vessels Trust Porirua Rescue and CRV Pelorus. Shoreline searches were performed around the whole of Mana Island and all the way down the West coast as far as Makara Beach, while Titahi Bay Surf Lifesaving Club covered the shoreline and immediate area around Titahi Bay.
Sea conditions were very rough with 1-2m waves and up to 30 knots of NW wind (slightly less than the previous day).

Coastguard Mana was tasked to search for a missing swimmer at Titahi Bay after a group of swimmers were caught in a rip. Emergency services responded to reports of a group of four swimmers in trouble at about 4pm. Most of the group were rescued but one was still unaccounted for.
CRV Trust Porirua Rescue has been searching in conjunction with Westpac Rescue and Titahi Bay Surf Lifesaving Club since 1700, while CRV Pelorus had to turn back due to severe sea conditions.
TPR returned to base at 2030 and will resume the search early on Sunday morning.

      <title>A Great Face for Radio 2</title>
      <link>http://www.plt.wellington.net.nz/</link>
      <description>Written and directed by Amanda Stone, Musical Director Dave Wellington.&#xD;
Following the huge success of "A Great Face For Radio" PLT is producing "A Great Face for Radio 2". This show will be a foot stomping night out  - enjoy our live band with outstanding performances of swinging 50s and 60s hits such as Ray Charles classics "Hit the Road Jack" and "Unchain my Heart", hits from The Crystals, Cliff Richard, Neil Sedaka, Buddy Holly and many, many more, as well as more hilarious moments with the hapless radio station staff of Radio PLT. Revisit familiar characters such as the tea ladies, Ida &amp; Beryl, Billy the over exuberant bumbling sound effects guy and meet new uproarious characters. &#xD;
&#xD;
Café style – BYO drink and nibbles - ideal for your office Christmas party, or just get a group of friends together, and be ready to have lots of fun!! 20 Nov - 5 Dec&#xD;
