We’re back!!!
FINALLY ...the return of Audio Jacks…

…now with added foodtruck !!

Top Auckland DJs augmenting the ever popular barefoot bowling at the iconic Rocky Nook Bowling Club- this week featuring dice_nz.

$10 pp gets you a relaxed, outdoor Friday evening social where you can join your mates or make some new ones, over great music and lawn bowls in the gorgeous environs of Fowlds Park, Mt Albert.

All bowls equipment provided.

You can also enjoy a foodtruck meal from Jay's kitchen and few wines and local and Irish ales- at sports club prices- from the Auckland IRISH CLUB Bar

5 minutes’ walk from Morningside Station- leave the car behind- this is a kid-friendly event and free for under 12's and RNB members. AIS and MARL members 1/2 price!

The main requirement is that any bowlers wear flat soled shoes to protect the greens.

There is no smoking or drinking on the greens. Drinking on the surrounds of the green is fine- especially if it’s our exclusive Jack Attack Pilsner from @urbanautbrewing.

Proof of full vaccination is also required for entry.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Aroha (Love and Compassion) - Day 14

Kiran Reddy from Mount Eden

Tāwhirimātea and the Rescued Tītī Birds


In a time of great storms, Tāwhirimātea, Atua of winds and weather, saw the little tītī (muttonbirds) struggling against fierce gales that had scattered their flock. Though known for his ferocity, Tāwhirimātea felt aroha for the vulnerable birds. He calmed the winds and guided the tītī to shelter, teaching the Atua of the forest, Tāne, how to protect them with his trees. The birds thrived, and in gratitude, they became a source of sustenance and companionship for the people.

Moral: True power lies in compassion, and by caring for others, we create harmony in our world.
