1 yr old rooster to rehome

Frith from Marlborough Sounds

He is such a beautiful bird and very protective of his girls. The girls seem happy apart from his pecking habit on one chook as he is mating with her. We don't want to hatch any chicks so would love for him to go to an awesome home where he can make many beautiful babies. We could swap him … View moreHe is such a beautiful bird and very protective of his girls. The girls seem happy apart from his pecking habit on one chook as he is mating with her.

Stolen Ham

Graeme from Blenheim

Would the low life who took our leg of ham from the garage freezer in Houldsworth St last Wednesday when we inadvertantly failed to lower our garage door, like to call back for the mustard I have left out. Next year give me a call and I'll gladly buy you one.

If you're looking for gardening inspiration, look no further.

Over the years, siblings Ross and Wendy Palmer have celebrated the unexpected in a garden that's full of unexpected twists and quirky turns.

Ross says they've "made random a virtue", and whatever form of plant life or gardening you're into, chances are this inventive duo has incorporated it in some way.

"This is our play area and neither of us are afraid to do silly things and playful things," says Wendy.

Plan for an emergency before your holiday!

The Team from Marlborough District Council

Hey neighbours, I hope you’re now on the wind-down side of Christmas! If you’re heading off on holiday shortly, please give a little thought to how you’d manage if an emergency strikes while you’re away from home.

Hey neighbours, I hope you’re now on the wind-down side of Christmas! If you’re heading off on holiday shortly, please give a little thought to how you’d manage if an emergency strikes while you’re away from home.

Check whether your holiday spot is in a tsunami zone and plan what you’d do if you need to evacuate. A local source tsunami could arrive in minutes, so there won’t be time for an official warning. It is important to recognise the natural warning signs and act quickly.

Remember, LONG or STRONG: GET GONE.

Here are some useful links to help you prepare for an emergency:
