Cycle Helmet did its job

Ross from Paraparaumu

Just a short note to say thanks to all the kind people to stopped to help me following a nasty cycle accident on Milne Drive last Saturday. Thanks for all you support at the scene and for the many messages you left in our letter box and phone calls. I ended up in Lower Hutt ICU for a 2night stay where a brilliant Surgeon and his team put me back together after shattering my jaw. As you can see the helmet I was wearing split in half as did my bike.I was very very lucky and am very grateful to all of the health service people who took such great care of me. So if you have a family member who is out biking to get some exercise during the lockdown, make sure they wear their helmet as well. Regards Ross Vessey

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!
