Can you spare Two hours to help fund raise for Breast Cancer Support
We can generally spare half a day to attend a funeral, could you commit to volunteering two hours to raise funds which could help someone battling with breast cancer?
Registrations are now open for the Breast Cancer Pink Ribbon Appeal and we are very short of volunteers for Hastings - at: Bunnings, Countdown, Mega Mitre 10, New World Hastings, Pak 'n Save and Unichem Stortford Lodge.
• you could go to the web site - www.breastcancerfoundation.org.nz... ,
• alternatively you could also email volunteer@bcf.org.nz to help you register –
• or I am more than happy to assist if you contact me - susiemcc@xtra.co.nz
Thank you so much - your help would be very much appreciated.Regards
Susie McCutcheon
Pink Ribbon Appeal Co-ordinator for Hastings

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

New neighbour
Okay folks, if you feed your animals outside, you might want to rethink that. We have new nocturnal neighbours, inside Havelock North.
There is a very well fed brush tail possum up the pōhutukawa tree in my garden.
I don’t know where it’s come in from, but it’s in the middle of a residential neighbourhood, so keep an eye on your pet doors, open windows and doors and pet food.
I’ll be notifying council and DOC tomorrow.
