Bucket list help.

Sarah from Phillipstown

I have a friend with terminal cancer. Shes just been told she's got less than a year to live. I took her and her husband out for dinner last night. I asked if she had a bucket list. She named a few things. One was she wanted to do more things with her husband, like meals out, experiences etc. I want to try and organise something at least monthly for them. They have both been unwell and on benefits all their lives. They have no money to spare.
Has anyone got any ideas or any contacts. Business owners, restaurant managers etc whom I could approach to see if they are able to donate something for this couple.

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!
