Hidden Treasures - New Gift Shop in Hikurangi
There’s a new gift shop in Hikurangi that has a few of my knitted and gift items. Worth a detour off SH1 - you might find that quirky gift for the hard to buy for relative. The shop likes to support local people.
The shop is the first on the right as you come into Hikurangi from north - Hidden Treasures, 55 King Street
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.
