Hidden Treasures - New Gift Shop in Hikurangi
There’s a new gift shop in Hikurangi that has a few of my knitted and gift items. Worth a detour off SH1 - you might find that quirky gift for the hard to buy for relative. The shop likes to support local people.
The shop is the first on the right as you come into Hikurangi from north - Hidden Treasures, 55 King Street

Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

Scam caller
Hi all I just received a phone call from 246347198 which had a recorded message stating that my Vodafone contract has been terminated.
I don't use Vodafone so obviously a scam. Just letting everyone know in case 😉
Keep safe
