Poll: Bid to stop flying trampolines

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Hi neighbours,

Brian Burne woke last Friday to find a three-metre trampoline in his backyard tangled among hundreds of his prized fairy lights.

It's not the first time it has happened and he's had a gutsful. So much so that he's called on Hamilton City Council to instigate a bylaw to ensure backyard trampolines are tied down.

What do you think?

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!
