Quiz Night, Wednesday, at The Barrel Inn, Howick

Phil from Farm Cove

Believe it or not, it's quiz night tomorrow Wednesday, at The Barrel Inn on Cook Street in Howick. I'm sure temperatures are rising as excitement levels build for our first Wednesday night quiz since August 11. You can reserve a table by phoning Clive and the dynamic team at The Barrel on 09 535 5540. We're serious quizzers but we're not that serious. We do enjoy having fun, and a singalong when it feels right. Remember, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's how you play the game. So bring along your lockdown locks if you haven't been to the hairdresser yet, like me, or your smart new do, for our start at 8pm sharp. Looking forward to calling the quiz again. - PJ

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!
