Boy (Girl) Racers
Dear All
There is concern about the Boy (Girl) Racer misbehaviour in our City.
The following verses perhaps sum up the matter.
Boy Racers think streets are their realm,
And feel they are gods at the helm;
But hold hard my friend,
Their exploits often end,
In outcomes that can overwhelm.
Some think that no matter the case,
They have ev’ry right to each race,
And one-eighty spins
To discover who wins;
We hope they’re removed without trace.
’Tis wrong that you think they’re all boys,
Indulging in furious joys;
There’s quite a few girls
Who indulge in these whirls
By using their cars as mad toys.
I wish they’d divert useless skills,
And find other ways for their thrills;
They should change their ways,
And get well deserved praise,
Instead of behaving like dills.

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!
