Each of the five beautifully appointed suites has been subtly themed, providing individual charm as well as comfort. In the heart of the lodge is a spacious, recently renovated farmhouse kitchen enjoying garden and orchard views. A large woodburner with wetback heats the water for a series of radiators around the house, ensuring year-round warmth.
Organically managed, the four-hectare property provides the ability to live from the land with honey, fruit trees, berry patches, vegetable gardens, olives and grazing for sheep, cattle and horses. The small Chardonnay vineyard with a careful selection of clones produces a succulent house wine thoroughly enjoyed by guests from all around the world.
A range of useful ancillary sheds and buildings offers space for projects, hobbies, storage and accommodation for staff. Other facilities on the property include a petanque court, croquet lawn and small gymnasium overlooking the swimming pool.
This extraordinarily diverse and unique lifestyle is ideally located on State Highway One, less than a five-minute drive from central Blenheim and 15 minutes from numerous winery cellar doors, restaurants and the airport.
Offers from $2,500,000 plus GST (if any)
Big and bold pottery set. Good for decoration or practical at BBQ time .No chips or cracks, excellent condition.

This is just an observation and not a challenge, after reading the comments on the Poll for Daylight Saving.
If we no longer eat meat of any kind, drink animal milk or use any of the bi products of animal milk -
What will happen to the animals who supply all of this?
Farmers of all kinds can't and, I expect, won't want to breed, keep, house, whatever they do at the moment, any of these non-productive animals and birds.
So ........
What is going to happen to all the cows, sheep, pigs, deer, chickens, turkeys, ducks etc etc?
Do we just wipe out all of the above?
We can't set them free. There won't be enough land because I expect farmers will have to go back to growing grain etc.
Is there a logical, calm, level-headed, answer to all of this?
Because the next thing may be that the grain we eat is full of chemicals and will also cause many illnesses and death via diseases.
Will people then start arguing for the grain to be monitored or whatever?

The Avis Budget Group Cure Kids 1000 hit the road on Red Nose Day with nine teams driving in convoy from Christchurch, through the North Canterbury back roads to Hanmer Springs, and back again to raise vital funds for a new app called Kakano.
Bruce Vincer, general manager, New Zealand Avis Budget Group, says his colleague, Rodney Swinney, wanted to organise a fun way to raise money for Cure Kids and came up with the idea of a charity car rally. He says "Mental health is a serious issue in our society, and it is important our young people are able to get the help and support they need."

Under the draft Education Amendment Bill, decile 1-7 state and state-integrated schools can opt to receive a payment of $150 per student, per year if they agree not to ask parents or caregivers for donations.
But as of last week, with just over a month to go until boards of trustees need to register, only 471 out of 1749 schools had told the Ministry of Education that they intend to sign up to the initiative.
In Canterbury, Shirley Boys' High School has rejected the discretionary grants, with headmaster John Laurenson saying its co-curriculum programme "would have to cease" if it took up the Government's offer.
Please note the dates for the RANGIORA SUNDAY MARKET From October 2019 to March 2020. To book a stall please email Arthur at sir.arthur@xnet .co.nz or phone Rangiora 03 745 91 48.

Tomorrow is the last day to post in your votes...after that you can vote by popping your voting papers into the Council service centres in Kaiapoi and Rangiora etc
We live in an awesome district which is under pressure to deliver services to a growing population. Clean water, well maintained reserves, maintaining roads and footpaths, rubbish collection etc
Rates are set to increase by 4.3% over the next 10 years...meaning if you are paying $3500 this year in 2029 you will be paying over $5000.. is this affordable.
We need staff to be more accountable for spending... in the last 3 financial years Council departments have been over budget by $32.8 million.
We need a district that is vibrant and well promoted to encourage businesses to grow and flourish and employ more locals.

I took some people with disabilities to visit this place a couple of years ago when it was on Oxford Rd. Someone told me it is now in Sefton, somewhere, but I have been unable to find it. Does anybody have any info of its whereabouts please, as I would like to take them to it again
