What you need to know:
- MetService has issued a strong wind warning for the Auckland region.
- Wind warning on Auckland Harbour Bridge today with strong wind gusts from now until early afternoon (approximately 1pm).
- In preparation the lanes on the Harbour Bridge will be in 4 x 4 formation mid morning, and remain in place until the warning has been lifted.
- There will be speed and lane restrictions in place. Motorists are urged to drive to the conditions and look out for the electronic message boards which will indicate lane closures or full closures (depending on wind thresholds) and reduced speeds, and stay within their lane while travelling across the bridge.
- Drivers of high sided vehicles and motorcyclists are advised to avoid the Auckland Harbour Bridge today and use the western ring route on State Highways 16 and 18. NZTA recommends motorists use the western ring route where possible.

Choirs from around the world share their songs with the local community in some of our iconic cultural institutions, vibrant neighbourhood arts centres, inner city spaces, historic churches, botanic gardens, and even at a beachside art gallery."
"Free*, informal and fun each hour-long concert features three or four choirs singing a diverse range of musical styles in intimate and epic settings. "
These are supposed to be FREE – ours is, well it’s at MOTAT –(NOT the main site – the Aviation Hall, 98 Motions Rd, Western Springs) -
FREE for Seniors/Gold Card - adults, $19 - everyone else - students, children, overseas seniors $10 (this is ENTRY to MOTAT - needed for this venue)
Not much of a “friendly” KIWI greetings to world, to the *people* in these international choirs – FIRST DAY of ‘games’. Their FIRST experience – singing in a – vast, cold EMPTY space…
("who is going to be there" we asked, friends & family, & “whoever will be at MOTAT on the day” – IF they even know about this…. )
So – if you are free tomorrow – we would LOVE to see you –

This has been harvested from hives placed on agricultural land – this is largely from nectar out of Clover and Squash (like pumpkin) flowers. The honey is a dark color and has a rich treacle-like flavor to it. Honey has some crystals in it but it is mainly runny.
Comb honey real novelty for many people – this is the natural form of honey, just as the bees make it. Honeybees build comb cells out of wax to store honey in, covering it over with more wax once the honey is ready. The wax is safe to eat but it does get stuck in your teeth – so many people spit that out!
$15 each. Usual discounts apply as per potted honey. Special discount of 4x comb honeys for $50. These weigh between 300-340g each.
Produced by another beekeeper and brought to you by Don Buck Honey!
Order online or get in touch with me. Pickups are from Massey, or orders can be couriered to you.
