Posters in Shop Windows

Barry from Otorohanga District

Something that really narks me is the profusion of out-of-date posters in shop windows.
I consider it’s not the responsibility of shop owners to take down leaflets and posters that they have kindly allowed to be fixed in their shop windows.
A couple of organisations I belong to, Rotary and Otorohanga’s District Council sponsored Events Committee, are fussy about getting around town and taking posters down within a day or two of the event having been held. They even take a spray can of window cleaner with them to remove the cello-tape marks.
The worst looking window is a vacant hot-bread shop in Otorohanga. Posters are stuck on the outside of the shop front, so should be very easy to remove. But no. There is a religious event poster from March 2017 and beside it is another poster for a similar event later this month – same organisation. One wonders.

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!

Lime stones

Karen from Te Awamutu

I have some lime stones that I want to sell. No longer want anymore, so I need them gone. If anyone wants them, come and have a look and see for yourself.
