Poll: Will you attend your local Anzac parade?
Road cones have won the battle, but hopefully not the war, after forcing two small town Anzac parades to retreat from the main road and instead have veterans parading down the footpath.
The defeat has seen Transport Minister Chris Bishop also fire shots at what he described as “insane and absurd” rules, and prohibitive costs of temporary traffic management and vow to do something about it.

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.
