Hi to Spreydon and Sydenham Neighbours,

Kate ( Burns St) and I ( Christine - Strickland St Community Gardens) buried a lovely cat found deceased on the corner of Deyell and Strickland St last night. We took it to the local vet to check for a microchip but none was found. It was a small light brown tabby with a white front. The fur seemed slightly long and silky. We buried Tabby at the Christchurch South Community Gardens in an area that is becoming a small cemetery for cats - it is a special place that will not ever be dug up by us or disturbed. If you think this is your cat - feel free to stop by at the gardens anytime or contact me on Ph. 9426630. Christine

kefir grains

Karen from Cashmere

Does anyone have any water kefir grains I could have? I have given them away myself in the past but mine have gone small and unhealthy for some reason. Would love to collect when yours have multiplied. Many thanks.

Christchurch Floods: State of Emergency Lifted

Mayor Lianne Dalziel has this afternoon lifted the State of Emergency around flooding in Christchurch and Banks Peninsula.

"The immediate dangers posed by significant rainfall and abnormally high tides are now behind us. We haven't had any rainfall since Saturday and we know the river levels and storage basins are gradually and continuously dropping," says Mayor Dalziel.

"The low-pressure system that was affecting tidal levels has now passed, and while they remain high, they are now within normal tidal ranges.

"Although we are transitioning into a recovery period, we are still monitoring river levels, tides and weather forecasts very closely, to ensure we are ready to react if we need to.

"The forecast of further rain from this Thursday means the situation is still changeable, but we are working hard to minimise any impacts by clearing flood debris from rivers, sumps and storm-water grates, and keeping pumps deployed in Southshore and Flockton."
