The package, outlined by leader Judith Collins on Friday, would include a four-lane expressway, linking Whangārei, Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga and extending the passenger rail network to Pōkeno. It would scrap plans to install light rail to the airport and instead build a train connection from Puhinui. The future of the Skypath is also in question. National would favour another Waitematā Harbour crossing in the form of a tunnel. What are your thoughts on the policies? Do you think they'll help combat congestion in Auckland?

No more boring weekends! Check out and join the "Auckland Day Trips New Zealand" and share with fellow Aucklanders some great places to go on the weekend - let's get out and support our local tourism and environment. It's a great group to join if you'd like to join and share your own favourite Auckland Day Trip or discover some new places to explore with your family and friends. Please note, I don't make any profit from this and don't have any personal conflict of interest. I'm just doing it as a support for our Auckland families and communities and to support local Auckland tourism that is suffering due to covid-19.

I'd never want to cause one unnecessary pain or suffering, which is why we've chosen to manage pests in our home with traps. It's not ideal, but it's better - and safer - than poison. I've done a little research on humane, effective vermin control during the wet months, when they like to come in from the cold. Take a look:

For a profession, I am a Gardner/Lawn Mower.
That profession has kept me active over the past half decade!
I have had numerous clients who are all pleased with my services. But, as expected this number is slowly reducing due to general drop off.
If you are needing this to be undertaken I may be able to assist you.

It is certainly Kevin's photos that provide such meaningful illustrations of the story of New Zealand wine and Kevin joined us live from his home in Marlborough.
Our tasting included 15 leading New Zealand Wines
Kumeu River Cremant
Blackenbrook Pinot Gris 2019
Tongue in Groove Riesling 2015
Millton Chenin Blanc 2018
Hans Herzog Mistral: Viognier, Marsanne, Roussane 2017
Kelly Washington Sauvignon Blanc 2017
Kumeu River Hunting Hill Chardonnay 2018
Cambridge Road Pinot Noir 2017
Greywacke Pinot Noir 2017
Burn Cottage Pinot Noir 2016
Passage Rock Syrah 2019
Craggy Range Merlot 2016
Hans Herzog Tempranillo 2015
Oak Estate Late Harvest Chardonnay 2018
Pegasus Bay Finale Noble Sauvignon Semillon 2017
We asked our guests to complete a questionnaire that included about what they liked about the wine: fruit? acid? mouthfeel? and then if they would buy the wine (as price is no object!).
The 5 top rated wines were:
Millton Chenin Blanc 2018
Kumeu River Hunting Hill Chardonnay 2018
Burn Cottage Pinot Noir 2016
Hans Herzog Tempranillo 2015
Pegasus Bay Finale Noble Sauvignon Semillon 2017
The 5 wines that people would buy were:
Millton Chenin Blanc 2018
Oak Estate Late Harvest Chardonnay 2018
Burn Cottage Pinot Noir 2016
Hans Herzog Tempranillo 2015
Pegasus Bay Finale Noble Sauvignon Semillon 2017
Pegasus Bay Finale Noble Sauvignon Semillon was the resounding winner on both questions.
Just goes to show that many kiwis do have a sweet-spot for those luscious white wines...

He’s the Labour candidate for the North Shore, and we hope he’s your choice for MP.
Why? Because we’re the North Shore. We’re named for our beautiful beaches, and Romy understands the importance of our waters. He loves our diverse communities, our vitality, our creative industries, and (of course!) our beaches.
If you love the North Shore too, Romy would love your support.
As Jacinda Ardern and her team plan to rebuild our economy, help families, and create jobs, vote Labour and Romy Udanga this September to keep the North Shore and all of New Zealand moving.
