Do you shun public transport?

Christchurch Mail

A story in todays Press says Christchurch is the car capital of the country, with more of us choosing to take the car than cycle or use public transport. Why do you think that is? When was the last time you got on the bus? What was it like? Do you own a bike, and bike around the city?

Why do you think that is? When was the last time you got on the bus? What was it like? Do you own a bike, and bike around the city? Keen to get some feedback and see what's behind the results of the MoT survey.

What's in a name?

Shannon Beynon Reporter from Christchurch Mail

A colleague just told me about a friend of his, who has two sets of twins - no mean feat! The thing that stuck out for me, though, were their names: Bernie and Dorothy, and Betty and Delilah. We figured they'd been named after family members, or Mum has a love for old-fashioned names. But it … View moreA colleague just told me about a friend of his, who has two sets of twins - no mean feat! The thing that stuck out for me, though, were their names: Bernie and Dorothy, and Betty and Delilah. We figured they'd been named after family members, or Mum has a love for old-fashioned names. But it got me to thinking - do you have an unusual name? Where did it come from? Has it been a blessing or a curse? My brother (Kylee) tried to buy my name off me when we were teenagers, but he's now settled into his moniker. Of course, it gets a little confusing sometimes, with his partner named Kylie...

Howdy all. Here at Wasp Wipeout we thought we'd give you some information on how to deal with the wasp that most populates urban gardens - the paper wasp.

Paper wasps can be easily identified by their long, drooping back legs and laid-back, slow style of flying.

Asian, Australian and European paper wasps have gradually made their homes around our houses and fences and over the past few years and while they are useful for some unwanted bugs like the great white cabbage butterfly, unfortunately they aren't picky and have been feasting on our monarch butterfly caterpillar and other useful native bugs as well.

At Wasp Wipeout we are working hard to help raise funds to wipe out the most invasive species of wasps - the vespula (common and German) variety which inhabit a lot of our bush areas and regularly invade picnics and barbecues. To help us fight this species you can donate here

If you want to find out more about paper wasps, you can read the story and watch the video here
