Retirees (or semi-retired)
Just a reminder - if you are retired or semi-retired, sick of the weather and feeling the need to get out and about, meet new people and try some new things - pop down to the Cashmere Club on Tuesday (2nd September) and join your local Probus Club. A brief summary of the official meeting procedures is followed by a mini-talk, then afternoon tea followed by a guest speaker. This month our guest speaker is Professor Catherine Theys, from the Canterbury Medical Research Foundation. Her subject is Stuttering. It should be very interesting. There will be time afterwards to mix and mingle some more if you wish.
The meeting will start sharp at 2pm so it's best to arrive a little bit early! There is no charge for your first three visits while you decide whether this group is for you or not.
We would love to see you - you will be made very welcome. PM me for further infomation or visit

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
