Like last year these are a large A3-size calendar, with cover printed on 300gsm gloss art board and the pages printed on 150gsm gloss art paper. These are printed locally in Petone at Valley Print. The calendars are $28 each inclusive of GST, plus courier at cost. Courier (NZ Post) is $11.50, plus approximately $3 extra for RD, but you can get up to six calendars for the one shipping cost. I've managed to source some home compostable bio plastic courier bags from a New Zealand Company called R3.
If you are in the Hutt, you are welcome to pick up from Woburn and save the courier cost. GST Tax invoices available when calendars arrive back from the printers. Payment on invoice by deposit into my account or cash on pick-up. Calendars should be ready to ship by end of September.
There is absolutely no problem if you pre-order and then change your mind before I ship them, as the extras I had printed sold out last year and several people missed out.
Email me on louise@louisethomas.co.nz or message me with your address details for shipping, or if you would like to pick up, I'll let you know my address. Thanks for supporting my venture.

Draft maps of river and stormwater flood hazards have been prepared. Next week, we’ll start taking the maps to communities across the city, and we’d like people with memories or photos of past flood events to help us make the finished maps as accurate as possible.
So come along to our public information sessions and view the draft maps, learn more about natural hazards and help us to manage flood risk in our city. More information blow.
Lower Hutt residents are giving up their vege patches and losing their lawn as deer move in on urban areas.

No one keeps tabs on deer numbers but anecdotally they are turning up in a range of urban areas including Naenae, Stokes Valley, Eastbourne and Wainuiomata, as well as the Belmont Regional Park.
The Hutt City Council has a $15,000 fund for culling deer, which is administered by Greater Wellington Regional Council.
Department of Conservation’s biodiversity threats advisor Dave Carlton says the deer that help themselves to Taylor’s garden point to a much bigger problem.
There are similar issues in urban areas throughout New Zealand and DOC is working on a national framework to come up with a strategy to deal with deer.

The latest computer modelling techniques have been used to develop
draft flood hazard maps that depict stormwater and river flooding.
Now we need you to help finish the job. To make sure the finished
maps are as accurate as possible, we’d like you to tell us about flooding
events in your neighbourhoods and show us any photos you’ve got.
For further information on this project, go to: hutt.city/floodhazards
We’d also like your thoughts on other natural hazards like earthquakes, slips and erosion, and their impacts on our city.
We need this information as we prepare to draft a new district plan – the rule book for land use and development in Lower Hutt. And lastly, as part of the district plan review, we’d like to talk to you about residential development in the city, particularly your thoughts on what is a reasonable distance for people to walk from higher-density residential housing to train stations, shops and other facilities.

Please meet Alyce Read of Nelson, who uses her houseplant collection to connect with others and help them overcome mental health challenges. "You wouldn’t take a plant and put it in a dark corner and fail to water it and expect it to thrive. So we should look at ourselves that way," she says. "If we are not thriving in the way that we would wish, it might not be any fault of ours, it might be the conditions that we are under."

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, build a free community library for your street, buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re spreading kindness this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

Although the total amount charged is correct, there had been “an incorrect allocation” between the city council and Greater Wellington rates, council chief executive Jo Miller (pictured) wrote in an email to councillors.
I have quite a few pallets and wood to get rid off. Anyone with fireplace or otherwise who may be interested, PM me. I need them gone asap. Thanks
