Dumped Car
This car (rego AFC 499) was dumped in Champion St about 2 1/2 months ago. Road tax has expired. Called CCC to have it removed. They say they can't do anything because (incredibly) it still has a WOF that does not expire until January 2019. So in total we are looking at having this piece of trash on our street for over 6 months. This I might add is the same council that won't empty your bin if the lid is open half an inch. Can't do anything? How about getting onto the owner and telling them if it is not moved it will be towed and destroyed?
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
