Petrol Price War

John from East Invercargill

I know this is not about cats up a tree and I have mentioned this before but can anyone explain why Invercargill has the cheapest petrol prices in the South Island and cheaper than most of the North. Invercargill 1.96 , ChCh , 2.08 , Otago 2.11 . Wellington 2.08 , Hawkes Bay 1.99 , Auckland 1.93.
The price of Brent crude is $US 20 more than when prices were 2.13. So does that mean when oil gets to 100.00 the petrol stations will be giving us money when we fill up.
On another note , being a nice day I decided too go for a walk in Queens Park instead of scaring cats as I walk the streets. No I never saw any cats up the several trees there but I did see the museum is still standing and that the shaking I experienced last night wasn't an earthquake but in fact fear from being chased by my wife.

No I am not coming down.

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!
