It has been just over a week since Hawke's Bay Today became a morning paper and things are going well. The switch from an afternoon paper has gone remarkably smoothly.
It has been a magnificent effort by many people and we are working hard to iron out any little problems to bring you your new quality morning newspaper, still crammed full of all the local news, sport and opinion you love.
The stars of the show have been our hardworking circulation manager Robert Cimino and his team of office staff, drivers and runners, who have adapted to the change so well and are making sure that you get your papers.
"It was an outstanding effort by our drivers and runners in the switch to morning deliveries, especially in the face of the weather bomb early last week. It is a dramatic change for those involved and they coped magnificently," he said
"We have had to make a few tweaks to our system to overcome some teething troubles which is to be expected and we are now on track with our deliveries operating as they should be."
