It was made from a pair of jeans from an op shop. "All of my gardening clothes come from op shops," she says. "Large men's shirts make good cover-ups to keep sun and insects off my arms. For the apron, start with a smaller size than you would wear so it doesn't wrap around too far. Check that it has a lot of pockets." So tell us if you've got similarly fashionable, exclusive-for-the-garden glad rags, and if yes, why not post a photo in the Reply space too!

So inspired to see a great crowd from the public on the Sunday -well done to all the teens, mums and dads who made it along to see a fantastic array of career option information. The Monday was manic too with buses arriving from schools across the Waikato region. I had some wonderful conversations with kids and young adults from year 7 upwards, as always they were funny, delightful, awesome kiwi kids -so inspiring!
Fantastic to see careers getting such a dialogue in families, schools and the wider community.
If I can help you or someone you know, please get in touch via my website www.ignitecareers.co.nz...
Have a great week!

In our upcoming July issue though, gardening guru Lynda Hallinan says marmalade is in danger of extinction because fewer and fewer people are buying, making or eating it!

We noticed him missing about 6pm last night. He was seen at Steele Park. He will be scared and we are worried that he has been taken. He doesn't just wander off on his own as is normally off his chain and inside or on the doorstep. Please if you know anything contact me ASAP.
We don't have any money but if our dog is returned we will do whatever we can to thank whoever gets him back to us.
