Do you think the best site has been chosen for the new Linwood pool?
A new $21 million pool will be built on the corner of Smith St and Linwood Ave. The site, which used to house a council nursery and was already council-owned, was the option most favoured by the community. Almost 90 per cent of the 487 submissions favoured it.
Community leaders have been calling for a pool in the Linwood/Woolston area since before the earthquakes, but some city councillors have questioned the cost of the facility.

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