Headstones @ Taita Cemetery
I just visited my nana's gravesite yesterday, and I know it's been a while. However on my visit I was sad and disheartened to see her hers and many other headstones covered in moss/lichen. It was raining lightly so I used my fingers to rub away at the moss/lichen which came off ok. When the weather clears I'm going back with hot soapy water and a toothbrush to finish cleaning it. 😇 Can I please suggest if anyone hasn't been to visit a loved one @ Taita Cemetery please do so, and help out by cleaning their headstone and perhaps the neighbouring ones. No tools are required, just water and a cloth and/or an old toothbrush.
Picture below shows moss/lichen.

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.
