Family in need
Hello all,
I have very close friends who have been displaced due to the landslip in Stokes Valley. They are very kind and are the first in line to help anyone in need. I now reach out as they are now in need. They are looking for a 3 bedroom house that allows 2 elderly cats (17 years old) as it seems they may be out of home for approx 3-6 months minimum until EQC, Council, Insurance company come to an agreement on next steps. They are not allowed to enter their house as it has a temporary red sticker placed on it. If anyone can help please reach out. Also there has been a give a little page started to help them get through this:

Thank you

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
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!
