The smell of that first kick off, the sound of the engines roaring and the crowd watching in anticipation as the first race begins. Eyes fixated on the race, the oohhs and aahhs when you see/hear the first crunch of the night, and the cheering as the driver gets out and is fine.
So the time has come. No longer an inexpensive and great way to pass a spring/summer/autumn night. Adored by many children and inspiring drivers.
The price has gone up, out of reach of many, especially the young, keeping them out of trouble and off the streets for a night of fun filled adrenaline.
We will miss you Meeanee Speedway.
We just cannot afford to visit you like we did the past few years.
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? π»π¨π
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
35.4% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
64.6% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Lawn mowing
Hi Everyone
I have availability on my lawn mowing run at the moment, for regular cutting, in the Napier area. My customers include residential and commercial properties and they are happy with the service I provide. Autumn is also a great time to get your lawn sorted, if you need some help. I have also had customers in the past, that were selling their property and needed it tidied and maintained, while on the market.
So if you are interested or need a quote, or know someone that needs help with their lawns? Please contact me.
You can reach me at 027 3731310 or Bradley.mw@gmail.com
Have a great day!
Michael from Blade Lawns.
