Christmas light show

Luke from Hornby

Video: www.youtube.com...

Every year for over the last 10 years I have been putting up thousands of lights at Christmas. The last 5 years have seen me move into animating these displays (They react along with a song)
You may have seen parts of this display on Avonhead road or in St Albans over the last few years.

You are all welcome to come see this display in Dunluce Place in Hornby. You can't miss it, between the hours of 8:30PM to 10:30PM Sunday - Thursday and 8:30PM to 11:30PM Friday and Saturday nights. The lights are first switched on, on December 1st

If you drive use your car radio or if you decide to walk/bike, bring a phone that has the ability to tune into a radio station. You will want to tune into 107.2FM when you are outside the light display. (Otherwise it won't make any sense, other than just some flashing lights) I will try to avoid playing music through a stereo outside as to avoid annoying neighbors at late hours.

There is no cost involved so bring as many people as you want. If you need a map you can find us on Lightupchristmas at this link here:

Most of the lights you see featured in the display are not available in New Zealand stores, and a lot of the decorations are hand-made and/or modified versions to suit my show.
If you have any negative effects when viewing flashing lights, please take this as a warning that these lights will flash and change colour to music and may cause issues for some people.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
