Scam telephone calls
Hi everyone,
We have had two SCAM CALLS in an hour and a half and two last week supposedly from SPARK (recorded message I might add) advising us our landline and internet will be disconnected in the next 24hours!! Our Caller ID has the numbers being called from as 03 261 1198 and 03 286 3218, so it would appear that they are using bogus numbers each call!! They tell you to PRESS ONE for information. DON’T DO THAT just hang up. Spark had told me that they do not, would not and have not been making such calls. SO PLEASE DON’T GET CAUGHT OUT and pass the warning on to others that you think may be taken in or are vulnerable. TAKE CARE EVERYONE AND BE EXTRA VIGILANT, CAREFUL AND SAFE.

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!
