CORGI RACE SUNDAY DEC 1
The public are invited to see the first official Welsh Corgi race in NZ when at 2pm Sunday December 1 the 100 metres sprint is held at Belmont Domain, Lower Hutt.
The prizes are Black Hawk premium dog food to placegetters and the Wellington Welsh Corgi Club new annual trophy presented to the winner.
Can a Corgi run in a straight line, can he/she not feel inclined to katnap, roll-over or show disregard during the 100 metres? Are Corgis just too well fed to even move off the starting line?
For any further info contact Michael on 021 614 821.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
