Walking For Wellness Completed — in Iceland!
Rodnie and Bryan Whitlock completed Ryman’s Walking for Wellness - Everest Challenge all the way from Iceland!
The Edmund Hillary Village couple had been planning their momentous September trip for over a year and at first, when they heard Ryman’s 2023 event was scheduled at the same time, thought they would have to miss out.

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.

Does anybody know a place in Auckland which takes possum fur?
Hi, my neighbours
One of my friends just caught a big possum from his garden.
He wants to ask if anybody knows a place to collect possums.
Or what he should do with it.
Kind regards
Betty
