Rangiora A&P Show a "good day out"
Thousands of people turned out for this year's Northern A&P Rangiora Show last weekend.
Show secretary Lisa Dooling says final figures are yet to be determined, but this year's show takings are up on last year and feedback from visitors has been fantastic.
"Everything just ran really well. It was a good, fun day," she says.
Dooling says the past few months organising the show were "extremely busy", but she managed to fit in some time to knit and even entered an item in the show.
"I won first prize for a knitted hat. A friend of mine came up to me at the show and told me I'd won, so that was nice. I had planned on entering two things but just ran out of time."
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
