Farrier
Does anyone know a decent RELIABLE farrier that would come to my place near Hawarden to TRIM 2 horses? I cant get anyone to come out this far for trims and they are now in a bad way as the last two that said they would come never turned up and never returned my texts phone messages or e mails!! I cant do them myself as I have a bad back and I am getting desperate as they are long enough to go skiing ( trim) one horse ( and he stood still!!) and I had to leave for an appointment. She said she would return to do the other but never did and I left loads of messages and also the way she did the feet have made them splay so much they are cracked now which is why I need someone. If you know anyone please as them to call me 033142030

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
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!
