Rant Time
If you are going for a walk, jog or bike ride around sunset, including heading home from work, by one of those methods, please, please, please, for the love of all things precious, stand in front of a mirror, in the dark!
If you can’t see yourself, neither can anyone else!
Do something about it!
I am getting well fed up with all the bloody close calls, because I don’t have night vision eyesight. And being abused for not seeing a shadow in the dark is bloody out of order.
Just because you can ‘see perfectly fine’ doesn’t mean you can be seen. And the same goes for drivers and headlights.
And last but not least, the bike paths between Havers and Hastings are not on the road. They’re shareways, on the other side of the berm. Same for Joll Road. Please use them. They were built specifically for you.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
