    I own the residential property that lies over the entrance of the Long Drive - and have some family and personal history with gold mining. The changes in landscape are dramatic - and the extent of how hollow these hills are astonishing. Thank you so much for all your work on this - we will purchase a copy of the book.

    My grandmother was a Keesing. She hid her Jewish identity for obvious reasons and married a non Jewish man. I found out I have Jewish ancestry only 3 years ago, I'm still to visit the Symonds st cemetery to see how that is looking in the Jewish quarter, hopefully no destruction to my family graves. I thank you for posting this video as it adds to my research.

    Wow - glad to find this stunning performance by one of New Zealand absolute top cellists. Polly inspired 14-year-old me, when I overheard her warming up for a performance on baroque cello playing the continuo line whilst singing the recitative over the top - then she went on to practise scales with a sound that made me want to play on gut strings. The rest is history.... I'd love to hear Polly play this wonderful music (discovered by her, I presume) on gut strings with a historical piano 😊

    I live in American Samoa. I lived and went to middle/high school in Samoa. I would work for my tuition during holidays. I lived with cousins in my parents villages. I learned respect for my elders, I knew how to weed, manage my chores, and to stay quiet until spoken to. I learned how to sit with legs folded quietly. That is the main core of Samoan culture. Learning how to manage subsistence crops, doing chores and respecting others.

    I am Keith’s eldest daughter. Thank you for the work you put into this. The amount of healing I have been able to do within myself because I was able to understand dad and why he was how he was helped me to understand why things were the way they were for me. My mother had a son before meeting dad and she was given the ultimatum when the relationship broke down (I believe she was pregnant at the time) that she had to give the baby up if she wanted to go home to her parents. Mum passed 7 years ago this Feb. At 25 I didn’t expect to lose her so had never delved deeper into the story as I saw how much it hurt her. The shame when she told me was heartbreaking. I love your help to find him to at least give him some closure should he ever want to know why. That he was loved and she felt she had no choice

    Excellent discussion about Aucklands' department store history. I recall them as a kid in the 1950s -going into the city with my mum and visiting the Farmers Store and also the Milne and Choyce Store..and being excited riding on the wooden escaloters( moving stairs), Also seeing the ladies putting change down pneumatic chutes in the walls to a service department in the basement. There was another shop with that being done on a series of wires that went down to the back of the shop with receipts in a copper tube. All machinery from the 1910s and 20s now long gone. Afternoon teas upstairs in a nice room with palm trees. Then we might go to a new film at the Regent cinema or the Civic .
