Crocheters Wanted
CROCHETERS WANTED.
We are a group of older ladies who make patchwork quilts and we also knit and crochet squares and strips to make into blankets for poor people in Moldova and Romania. We are always needing wool and material scraps to keep us going but right now we also need a couple of people who would be willing to crochet round the edges of the blankets when they have been sewn together. If you can crochet and have a bit of free time to help us finish off our blankets, or if you have material scraps suitable for patchwork or odd balls of wool/acrylic, we would love to hear from you. Please call me on 021-057-0371. Pat Gregory
What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital?
How long it’ll take depends on who you ask and you can measure it in years, elections, or Rugby world cups.
But Hamilton City will eventually be home to more people than Wellington City - likely in somewhere between 24 or 34 years according to Statistics NZ and Waikato University.
What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
