This month: a Hamilton East Historical Cemetery tour. Round the Bridges. The Triumphant return of Ancient Tapes. 7 Days Live comes to town. And a Japanese Drama filmed in Raglan hits Netflix.

Boy, did you love our little guest spot from Poppies bookstore. Well, August is Hamilton Book Month, so have at it. Otherwise, this month we’re talking about a local maniac who’s fled to the desert, Roundabout News seems to have been replaced with a monthly hot item in Parking-Gone-Wild news, a gripping one-woman stage show depicting a tumultuous legal career hits the stage, and the Mr-Pickles-Pasta-Place is coming soon…

Jane Goodall, naughty councillors who’ve watched too much Succession, another new hotel and apartment block. Gigs, including the end of the Yot Club in Raglan. The cat show - with lots of weird cats! We went to Sage. (That’s Sage, not Thyme, as we’ve found ourselves explaining to people.) And Poppies Bookstore gives us their top 5 winter reads, including for kids on school break, and the emergence of a genre we’re going to dub ‘evidence-based self help’.

It’s actually our first birthday this month, and dear reader, it is also something of a slow news month. We’ve always said the Draft should be discerning and that means it’s as long as it needs to be; sometimes that also means the Draft is as short as it needs to be.
But whether you’re an old faithful or one of our newer readers, we’re sure are glad to have you, and love all your feedback. And tell your friends - we’d love to have them too.
