Credit must be given where due. Gratitude too.

Lissa from Kauri Coast

Hi All
I answered an ad for a Hoover vacuum cleaner posted by Shona Lamont some days ago. It was very cheap, so I asked her for it. I live in Dargaville; she is in Whangarei. We wondered how I would get it to my home. Then I had to accompany a youngster to McKay Stadium on Tuesday night for wheelchair soccer. I asked Shona whether she would be able to bring the vacuum cleaner there for me. Not only did she gladly oblige, but the vacuum cleaner was spotlessly clean, well packed in a box with a new bag fitted, a spare bag in the box, and a pet-hair head which had cost $85. All the fittings were included. The machine looked brand new! I paid $45. The vacuum cleaner works brilliantly. I just want to do a shout-out to someone we can all trust. Thank you, Shona!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
