If you're not after a pool, what would you like to see instead?

Our Smiles for Christmas campaign, which is supported by Malcolm Wrigley Insurance Services, closes next week.
Franklin County News is collecting goodies for clients of Franklin Family Support Services, people in our towns who are struggling to make ends meet, let alone plan for Christmas.
Locals can drop non perishable food items, hardly used or new toys and books for boys and girls, and pamper items off to our office at 217 King St, Pukekohe, Franklin Family Support Services in Pukekohe, or under the Christmas tree at Pukekohe Library.
Franklin Family Support would appreciate donations of the kinds of things that say "I care" such as pretty soaps, deodorants, aftershaves and trinkets.
A serious multi-vehicle crash means Auckland motorists are facing big delays on the southern motorway on Friday afternoon.

It's the most wonderful time of the year and the Franklin Woodturners Club is holding its annual Christmas sale.
Summer seems to have arrived a bit early this year and already the hot topic of which beach to visit is being debated up and down the country. What is your favourite beach? Share with your FCN Neighbours. To get the ball rolling, mine is Kaiteriteri Beach in the Abel Tasman National Park - bliss!
Hi folks,
seaweed is starting to come ashore on the beaches at Big Bay , Awhitu.
Local residents are working with the Council to clear this out but if you act within the next week or so, it will be available free.
Just bring you 4x4 and trailer and help yourself.

Fishing baskets and garden waste bags are also good.
Best at low tide.
