DUCKS CROSSING ! Drivers please be mindful of ducklings and mum crossing Cook Street.
Hi neighbors,
For the past few years we have had ducks visiting our street at Abercrombie and around, I have just noticed that 1 of the babies from last year has returned and she has 6 new additions to her family. So cute.
Anyway she has been crossing the road at the corner of Abercrombie and Cook Street to get to I think Sale Street early morning I’m guessing before 8 and going back around 5.30 in the evening.
Just wanting to make people driving by aware, so they can please be mindful of them trying to cross the street if you see them.
Thanks.
Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.

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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
