Love bites in Blenheim as Allergic to Love prepares for US tour

Megan Leov Reporter from Marlborough Express

This weekend in Blenheim you may notice a certain eerie still in the air. A spooky calm. You may go to the $2 shop and notice all the leopard skin tights have sold out. The hair salons have locked their doors in terror. Your auntie is dusting off the leather jacket with tassels, purple mascara and hoop earrings.

Anyone seen my scrunchy?

Don't be too petrified. It's only the countdown to the biggest rock opera of probably forever playing live (and nearly in love) at Biddy Kate's Irish Bar.

Festive Farmers' Market Christmas Market

Ron from Fairhall - Renwick - Woodbourne

SharpAs Tool Tips
I’ll be at today’s Marlborough Farmers' Market from 3–6pm — a great last chance to get your knives sharpened before a busy Christmas Day.
If you have knives, tools, or other items that need sharpening, come along to the special Farmers’ Market today.

Please note: aside from the statutory days, I’ll still be open.
Cheers,
Ron

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
