From catching sprats on the farm as a young boy to representing New Zealand on the world stage, it’s always been his passion. These days, as a Bruce McLaren Village resident, Neil finds nothing more enjoyable than casting a line, surrounded by scenic vistas and the melodies of native birds, before releasing his catch back into the water.

An experienced fishing guide, Neil shares his love of fly fishing with his new mate and village neighbour, David. While they met in the village, the pair are often mistaken for lifelong friends. Like Neil, David has always been an active person.

OH ME OF LITTLE FAITH

Watching the Black Caps in their T20 match against Shri Lanka last night i gave up when it was such a one-sided game at Mt Maunganui with the NZ side in the process of getting slaughtered.

So I tuned the tv set to Netflix and a movie named The Hunt - a movie banned in USA that depicted ghastly right wing deplorables venerated by Trump doing horrific things.

Well I gave the movie away before its completion and switched to the cricket after its completion.

Somehow brilliance in mouthfuls had taken the Black Caps to new heights and they had impossibly won the match before a crowded house of over 10,000 spectators.

What did I miss!!! Only Trump's demise would have been better.

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
