Poll: What do you reckon about passenger rail stopping in Morrinsville?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

It’s been over 20 years since a passenger train last stopped in Morrinsville, locals recall, but they say it’d be “fantastic” if it came back to the town.

Cathy Balvert remembers the last time the train ran to Tauranga, because she took it with her kids, now in their 30s.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new
