Water Wastage
This has been an ongoing gripe of mine for the past 3 years, even more so now that CCC is charging households for using "too much" water.
The local cricket club turns the water on the cricket pitch in St James Park and they leave it running for 3 or 4 days at a time, rain or shine. Thousands of litres of water for amateur cricket teams to play on it once a week for 4 or 5 hours. Have complained to CCC as well as the local council rep and just keeps happening. I asked the person I spoke to at CCC last time if the club paid for water and he said "he probably shouldn't answer that". Answer enough.
So much for conserving water, especially in what looks to be a hot, dry summer.
Good job CCC!

Flowers for free ????
Very disappointed that our front garden had a 14 bud Christmas Regal Lilly cut and taken with several others last night, but what it lead others to do was worse damage. They ripped out other flowers and some may not recover. Do not come back tonight, as we are cutting all of them today.
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!
