Eleanor Wenman Reporter from The Hutt News

Some people believe recyclable and compostable cups are the way to go but others say we should cut out takeaway cups all together. What do you think?

No charge because you do all the work of harvesting. Think of all that yummy jam and chutney you could make! We have very technology advanced tools to help you - an unbent coat hanger for reaching, a tyre in the tree as a platform, and egg cartons to transport your fig rewards back to your house.

I am representing New Zealand at international medieval fighting tournaments in Italy and Scotland this year in May. For a look at my fighting and travel itinerary, you can see it on my fundraising video.

I have set myself the target of raising $5k (NZ) and I would greatly appreciate it if you share my video with others, encourage donations to my fighting funds, and wish me luck.
