Christchurch Cathedral Restoration-YES OR NO??
Hi neighbours. There has been much debate over the restoration of the Cathedral versus building a totally new Cathedral. It appears as ratepayers that at this stage we will be contributing to the Anglican Cathedral restoration. What has interested me as a ratepayer and a Christchurch resident is how many of us want restoration, how many would rather see a totally new Cathedral built. Given we seem to be contributing we should have some right to an opinion on the subject. I personally have no idea whether 90% want restoration or 90% want a new cathedral. As ratepayers I don't feel we have been asked or consulted. So here is your chance, I don't intend this to be a debate about whys or why not, so if you would like to participate could we simply have only RESTORATION or NEW CATHEDRAL typed. No debates please, nobody wins in heated arguments. Will be interesting to see results

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!
