Poll: Have businesses in your neighbourhood been affected by crime recently?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Incompetent teenage ram raiders smashed a stolen vehicle into a Hamilton dairy three times, with the driver nearly running over an accomplice at one point.

But despite a big headache for the business owner and a massive clean-up, it was all for summer snacks as the group came away with ice creams, drinks and a handful of vapes - and a court date.

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? 🍫
