FROM THE EDITOR

Phew! We’ve had a busy time of late at the Weekly, partly because we caught a glimpse of the truly glorious weather forecast for Easter weekend and decided that we’d make sure we all took the four days off and enjoy summer’s (potentially!) last hurrah. Those late nights in the office were definitely worth it to top up those vitamin D levels! I hope you were blessed with some sunshine in your part of New Zealand and had a lovely, relaxing holiday.

Adding to our busy weeks here in the office has been another project we’ve been working away at. You may have seen it in your local supermarket or bookstore – our special, one-off magazine called Retro. The magazine turns back the dial and features some of our favourite faces from yesteryear – everyone from cover girl Elizabeth Taylor and The Monkees, to the king himself, Elvis Presley.

It’s a fascinating wee look back, so I do hope you’ll take a look! We’ve got a sneak peek of what you’ll find in its pages in this issue on page 20, where we remember the tumultuous life of actress Lucille Ball. I hope you enjoy it.

Enjoy your week!
