How lucky are we?

Jeff from Saint Andrews

With the weather improving I would like people to understand the hell those in America and The Philippines plus now Honk Kong and China are struggling through.
My wife's family are in direct path of Typhoons every season in The Philippines at the Cagayan Valley area etc in the northern part of the country. This is the worst storm they have had in 20 years doing a lot more damage and my partner won't be in direct contact with them for a month or so until the power lines get fixed. Now understand they are just one family where millions in a country of 104 million people are all suffering so badly. Lets put our thoughts to their well being so the mental energy can at least help them a bit.

Some Choice News!

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!

Walking path & not one facility I could find to give a dog a drink of water.

Shezz from Ngaruawahia

Council. I would like to suggest that a dog drinking post or two be erected, with a metal bowl below and a self stopping tap to top it up, to give fresh water to thirsty dogs who accompany their owners on this pathway. Perhaps a water fountain at the top for the owner as well. Thank you.
