Have-a-go at bagpipes and drumming
Ever wanted to have a go at pipe band drumming or playing the bagpipes? Organisers of the national pipe band championships are providing an opportunity for youngsters to “Have-a-Go” at bagpipes and drums. The Have-a-Go tent will be operating on the morning of Saturday 20 March at the National Pipe Band Championships. Youngsters who would like to know more about bagpiping and pipe band drumming can talk to people and beat a drum, blow a chanter or raise a mace. Playing drums and bagpipes in a pipe band is a great experience for youngsters and this year’s contest features a record number of entries in the juvenile competition. The contest is being staged at Mitre10 Park, Percival Road, Hastings - entry to the park will be by gold coin donation. The competition starts at 9am on Friday 19th and continues until late afternoon Saturday 20th. More details are on the contest website nzpbchamps.nz

POTTING MIX QUALITY
If, like me, you are an experienced and avid gardener you know how frustrating it is when those beautiful seedlings recently purchased fail to thrive. Have you ever considered it may not be your fault, you've done all the right things but it may be the new bag of potting mix you bought to plant them in . Have you ever complained to the garden centre? My recent experience showed the blatantly obvious difference between brands. The recently purchased product was nothing more than raw compost, whereas the previous product was a good mix and made the plants thrive. I was the only one to complain, there could not possibly be a problem with the product as they sell pallet loads of it........ Your comments would be appreciated.
