Hornby hikoi fights for pool project
The Hornby community is mobilising to convince city leaders to push ahead with plans to build a $35 million pool, library and service centre in the suburb.
The Christchurch City Council decided in December to build the facility at Kyle Park, after Denton Park was ruled out following public opposition.
The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board shocked the community on August 27 when it voted against confirming the exact location of the facility within Kyle Park. The board also decided not to proceed with the development of a concept plan and did not approve the scope for the project.

Response to regifting presents
My mind tends to wander:
I do not see any problem with regifting it back to the person who gave it, they obviously liked it. In fact, that might work out well as you buy the present you want, then gift it to someone you know who will gift it back.
Perfect, no decision needs to be made about Xmas presents
