Letters about subscriptions

Can I pause my subscription while I’m away?

Dear Harbour Lights, I spend every August on my sister’s boat and would rather not pay for papers piling up on the doormat.

R. Okafor, Mill Lane

The editor replies: Yes, for up to two months a year, from your account page. The bicycle courier has also been told, and is relieved.

Do you deliver to the islands?

Dear Harbour Lights, The ferry exists. Does your courier know?

A. Lind, North Island

The editor replies: The ferry, the courier and the bicycle have all been introduced. Print copies reach the islands on Sunday, which islanders tell us is the correct day anyway.

Why should I pay for news at all?

Dear Harbour Lights, Most of it is free somewhere.

Name withheld, Old Town

The editor replies: Somebody has to sit through the council meeting so you don’t have to. Your subscription pays for the chair, the coffee and the reporter who stays awake.
