Looking for Italian Tomato Seeds
Years and years ago my dad used to grow lovely tomatoes in Auckland. He always referred to them as 'Italian tomatoes'. They were almost pear shaped, almost seedless, acid free, fleshy, dark rich red and sometimes a bit green up on the top where the stalk was. They were not the Roma tomatoes you see around today? Can anyone tell me about these and/or where to get some seed for them for next season?

NZ Post and Rachel Boyack
I see our MP, Labour’s Rachel Boyack, is shedding crocodile tears over the NZ Post closures announced today for Nelson. Perhaps Rachel has ‘forgotten’ it was Labour that corporatised NZ Post, intentionally turning it from a service organisation into one focused solely on profit. Her cries would be a little more credible if she could promise Labour would reopen the closed offices or, even better, reverse that Labour-directed profit-only change.
Come on Rachel, what is Labour’s real position - public service or money?
