Thank you!

Alice from Wainuiomata

I just want to thank the work truck driver who’s quick thinking stopped a careless female driver undertaking him and almost running myself and my 3 year old over on the crossing beside Daily Bread Bakery this morning. I was crossing safely carrying my daughter, the truck with 2 men in it stopped and we waved to say thank you, I hadn’t seen a women sneaking up and quickly undertaking him. He spotted it and wedged his truck in front of her blocking her car with his truck. People I know you’re all in a rush in the morning but if traffic is stopped at a crossing please think before passing any other vehicle. If it hadn’t been for his keen observation skills and quick thinking myself or my daughter could of been road kill. Car vs pedestrians we would of stood no chance. I had waited till traffic stopped before crossing I hadn’t just stepped out into moving traffic this is beyond stupid what the woman did.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
