Headstone Unveiling
You may have seen a recent article about a WW1 veteran lying in an unmarked grave at Park Island cemetery. NZ Remembrance Army, a nationwide group who restore the graves of veterans and tell their stories have purchased William Lee a headstone and it will be unveiled with a service on Saturday, 6 November at 11am.
Park Island cemetery is the one with the dog agility equipment at the bottom and it's across the road from Wharerangi cemetery where most people think all of the service people are buried.
Parking is limited so car pooling is wise as is parking at the sportsgrounds and walking from there. The cemetery is alongside the cycleway. The grave is at the top of the cemetery and to the left.

Check your supermarket receipts
Today I went to Woolworths Cnr Munroe and Dickens Streets, Napier and purchased a 3 litre bottle of Woolworth milk. I got a surprise to see that it had gone up from $5.72 to $5.96. However, when it was scanned at the checkout I was charged $6.06. I was confused and thought I had got the price wrong so went back to check, sure enough the shelf price was $5.96. When making a complaint with the supervisor I was offered a refund of the error difference, but I said this was not right. She then refunded the full amount and told me to keep the milk. If you are concerned about your grocery bill it pays to check and complain if you believe an error has been made.
Good garden hose
