Poll: Are you a caving fan?
I rarely say no to a new experience. Which is probably why I found myself, a non-swimmer with exactly zero caving experience, zipping into a wetsuit on a chilly Waitomo morning and wondering whether I was about to make national headlines for all the wrong reasons.
But how could I say no? This wasn’t just any old adventure. It was my first-ever caving expedition, my debut in a wetsuit, and my introduction one of New Zealand’s oldest tourist destinations. The promise of glowworms and underground wonder lured me in like a moth to a bioluminescent glow.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

One size fits all rates cap model ‘unworkable’, says Waipā DC
Waipā District Council says the government’s “one size fits all” proposal to cap rate rises could disproportionately harm fast-growing councils such as Waipā.
On Wednesday, Strategic Planning and Policy committee members debated the council’s submission on the proposed rates cap model.
Recommendation
Any recommendations please for someone who can knock out a dent in a car bumper.
