Another wonderful thing to come out of the Kaikōura quake.
Before the quake, it was a quiet, babbling river, seldom visited by tourists and not paid too much attention by locals.

On January 2 the Ngakuta Bay Classic was held in Little Ngakuta Bay.
Nine teams of four entered and the first leg was a run, with baton, to the other jetty in the larger Ngakuta Bay (800 metres). The baton was passed to a second person to row across the bay to Little Ngakuta Bay and then the baton passed on for a swim out into the bay, around a buoy and back to Little Ngakuta Bay (maybe 700 metres).
The winning team did it in around 17 minutes and was won by Team Bendell - Hunter Bendell ran (4th), Vicki and David did the row (2nd) and Callanthia Hammond, a 13 year old swimmer who nailed it for the team. Callantia beat older teenagers and adults who also did the swim for the other teams. There were around 70 folk supporting the teams and it was a pleasant event as the trophy was handed over and prizes given out.

Is anyone else concerned/disturbed by fireworks being let off in the middle of the night outside of 5 November? If so, any ideas as to how they can be stopped?

Paper wasps can be easily identified by their long, drooping back legs and laid-back, slow style of flying.
Asian, Australian and European paper wasps have gradually made their homes around our houses and fences and over the past few years and while they are useful for some unwanted bugs like the great white cabbage butterfly, unfortunately they aren't picky and have been feasting on our monarch butterfly caterpillar and other useful native bugs as well.
At Wasp Wipeout we are working hard to help raise funds to wipe out the most invasive species of wasps - the vespula (common and German) variety which inhabit a lot of our bush areas and regularly invade picnics and barbecues. To help us fight this species you can donate here
If you want to find out more about paper wasps, you can read the story and watch the video here
