Hi Neighbours
What a great time of year for colour in the garden
We really love Rhodos, roses, irises and aquilegias for spring/summer colour
Whats your favourite?
Listening ears:

Hugo, our listening dog, is not a Hearing Dog for someone with hearing impairment, but if he was, his ears would probably be very useful. With a dog’s hearing being far superior to human hearing, dogs can really make a difference to the life of a deaf or hearing-impaired person.
It is thought that dogs hear about four times better than we do. The world is a noisy place for dogs, who can hear things like the bodily vibrations of termites in the walls.
Take a look at the NZ website of Hearing Dogs. Specially trained Hearing Dogs provide valuable services to deaf and hearing-impaired people in much the same way as guide dogs for blind people. In 1998, Hearing Dogs for Deaf People NZ was formally established and incorporated as a charitable trust. Hearing Dogs have the same access rights as Guide Dogs for the blind - they are allowed into all public places, including food premises.
Longest ears:
The longest ears on a dog measured 31.1 cm (12.24 in) and 34.3 cm (13.5 in) for the left and right ears, respectively, on 8 June 2010. They belong to Harbor, a Black and Tan Coonhound, who is owned by Jennifer Wert of Colorado, USA. Harbor is a seven-year-old Coonhound who weighs a healthy 40.51 kg (89.2 lb).
Deaf ears:
Floppy, folded, small, large - dogs’ ears come in many shapes and sizes, but they all serve the same purpose - as funnels for sound.
But sad to say, from birth deafness has been reported in 85 breeds of dog, for example, Dalmatians. Older dogs can develop hearing problems as well.
University of Cincinnati researcher Pete Scheifele, also the director of UC’s Bioacoustics and Canine Audiology Clinic, is developing a hearing aid that will help dogs with acquired hearing loss.
Ears to communicate:
Dog ears are also designed to communicate. According to WebMD for pets:
Naturally held ears indicates being relaxed and comfortable
Ears flattened to head show submission or fear
Raising ears shows alertness (and they’re usually directed toward source of interest)
Up and forward ears can indicate aggression
Pulled back ears are a sign of friendliness.
Ears that move:
Can you move your ears, even at all? Dogs’ ears move independently of one another.
Dogs’ ears have at least 18 muscles work to tilt, raise and rotate these furry appendages, helping the dog identify and capture sounds from different directions.
And for most dogs, the ears can significantly enhance their facial expressions, so see if your dog is smiling or looking grumpy today!
Poorly dog ears:
Apparently, dog ear problems are the number one dog health issue.
But we don’t use our microscope to look in or treat dogs’ ears at Ear Suction Hawkes Bay, so you’ll have to take yours to the vets!
No matter how long you’ve been riding, the unexpected can always happen. Be an even better rider with Ride Forever coaching.

Thunderstorms are expected about northern and central areas of the North Island this afternoon and evening. About the central North Island areas of the Coromandel Peninsula, Waikato, Waitomo, Taumarunui, Bay of Plenty, Taupo, Taihape, Gisborne and Hawkes Bay, there is a moderate risk some of these thunderstorms could become SEVERE producing localised downpours of 25 to 40mm/hr and large hail 20 to 25mm in diameter.
Rainfall of this intensity can cause surface and/or flash flooding, especially about low-lying areas such as streams, rivers or narrow valleys, and may also lead to slips.
Driving conditions will also be hazardous with surface flooding and poor visibility in heavy rain. Large hail can cause significant damage to crops, orchards, vines, glasshouses and vehicles, as well as make driving conditions hazardous. Should severe weather approach or if you feel threatened, take shelter immediately.

Christmas is supposed to be the jolliest time of year - full of whimsical family reunions, selfless gift-giving and Masterchef-worthy feasts.
But sometimes this just isn't captured on camera. We're after those amazingly awkward Christmas moments that have been captured on film.
Maybe it was the time you went to visit Santa and your little one didn't want a bar of it. Maybe it was a self-timed family shot that went horribly awry. Or a Christmas meal that was more a festive fail.
Whatever the not-so-merry moment, we want to see it! Share your pictures and a little bit about them with us in Stuff Nation. We look forward to seeing them! Here's the link to contribute.

Thought with Christmas Day approaching we might like to share some of our 'Christmas Tips' that we have found to be helpful.
Here is mine,
1. A few years ago I was at the Strawberry Place on Te Aute Road and the lady serving me told me to not line up with the crowds the day before Christmas but to simply buy the strawberries 4-7 days ahead. Put a few paper towels in the bottom of an airtight container and pop the strawberries in the container. They should be good as when you put them in up to a week later! It works really well. Pop them in the fridge!!
2. If there are children around, find an easy to read version of the Christmas story and get them to read it out loud to everyone - find the words and sing Away in a Manger or Silent Night. I was blown away one year with a house filled with people and the children led this story. There was something quite marvellous about it. And there is something pretty cool about passing on the songs we grew up with.
3. Get some plain baubles things (not sure of their real name, but those round balls you hang on the tree) and with a marker pen or glitter pens if you feel really creative, write on each one a name of each family member (they could then hang their own on the tree or somewhere else if you don't have a tree) and my favourite is we have named ones for my parents who are no longer with us, so we are including them and their memory with this special tradition. This way you can certainly still include other special people who might be not able to be with you for Christmas too. This came about because when we lived in Cairns, as a baby gift, some friends gave us the Christmas Baubles, each one with our names on them and then when we left Cairns by husband's workplace had more made for us and they had an extra large one made with the name of the workplace so that gets hung every year as well. I so enjoyed them, we got on and made others for other people in our family.
4. Some years back, one of our kids' was set the task of making one or two of the Christmas desserts. He did such a good job, he is now on Christmas Deserts and does all of them. Clever Mummy!!
So, what have you found helpful or what do think works well for you over Christmas?
You might even like to tell us how you discovered the tip or how it came to be in your house.
Looking forward to hearing your cool ideas or traditions that make it work well for you.
Happy Days.
Rhonda
