Breast Cancer affects so many of us in so many ways - could you please help?
Hi there Hawke's Bay people - the Pink Ribbon weekend collecting for breast cancer support is coming up - Friday 13 and Saturday 14 November at New World Hastings. Currently we have slots available as follows:
On Friday 13 November - one slot at 8-10am, one slot at -10-12, one slot at 2-4 and four slots at 4-6pm.
On Saturday 14 November - four slots at 8-10am, two slots at 12-2pm, three slots at 2-4pm, and three slots at 4-6pm.
Could you please give two hours of your time? If you can help please comment below or PM me and I will contact you.
Also, please ask your friends and family to lend a helping hand – men are more than welcome – remember – men can get breast cancer too! And you can bring your dog and / or your children / grandchildren.
I look forward to working with you – in the pink: a scarf, a skirt, earrings, a whimsy, a wig, a t-shirt/jacket/jumper, pink feather boa, pink bowler hat – some / any / all of those!
Regards
Susie McCutcheon
Pink Ribbon Appeal Co-ordinator for Hastings
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

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.
