Cleaning graves
Thank you to Diane, Lyn and Derek who joined the NZ Remembrance Army cleaning graves in the Napier Hill cemetery today. What lovely people you are and what a difference you made.
Some graves are a huge effort but in a lot of cases, 15 minutes can restore a long neglected grave. NZ Remembrance Army do the soldier graves in the cemeteries but they are a fraction of what is required. All of our local cemeteries have graves that need some cleaning.
Some of our team will be back at the hill cemetery on Sunday morning (for most of the day). Please join us if you can spare even half an hour. We'll show you how we do it with a few tools and just water.
Bring a bucket, scraper and two scrubbing brushes (one soft and one firm), a brush and pan. If you are driving, a broom is good too.
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.
Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.
