Poll: Will the weather affect your Christmas Day plans?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Pack your togs, towels, and an umbrella and raincoat if you’re heading away early as the chances you’ll have a sunny Christmas Day are anyone’s guess.

According to MetService meteorologist Sarah Haddon, weather boffins will have a much clearer picture of what the weather has in store for Waikato this weekend as two major weather systems play havoc with their predictions.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
