Poll: Which Hamilton-Auckland train name do you prefer?

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Hi neighbours,

The new commuter train to Auckland has a name - Te Huia. As reporter Mike Mather writes here, The Tron Express was popular but ran into strong opposition at the Waikato District Council.

Which do you prefer and why?

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!
