What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.
Torrential rain … View moreWhat do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.
Torrential rain and a flooded bridge keep them stranded for three days. What they get up to, to help pass the time, raises a few eyebrows and will have you laughing, tearing up and applauding enthusiastically as they bare all.
Of course, it’s not just souls that are exposed, there’s a little nudity, a cracking thunderstorm, explosions, screaming bloody murder, ghostly stories, a birthday celebration, a séance, a drunken party, confessions, meltdowns and revelations that will keep you and your friends entertained throughout.
Perfectly timed for your own social group’s ascent into summer, don’t miss this hilarious play when it comes to a town near you in November.
Do you know someone in your neighbourhood who deserves a pat on the back for making it a better place to live?

Philippa Foes-Lamb was travelling west on the Appleby section of State Highway 60 when a heavy vehicle pulling a trailer unit pulled out suddenly from the Pea Viner Corner on Thursday afternoon.
The review of the route, between Three Brothers and Maisey Road, led to an NZTA proposal to lower the speed limit from 100km/h to 80km/h to improve safety.
Tasman District Council is proposing to lower the speed limits on connecting roads along the 9km stretch to ensure consistency with the speed limit proposed for SH60.

Izabella was born profoundly deaf and in the four years following her diagnosis, her parents' emotions of shock, being scared and overwhelmed have turned to amazement, surprise and hope - all thanks to Izabella's progress as a hearing and speaking child.
Izabella loves to sing and dance, she enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and playing with her older brothers. What are her superpowers I hear you ask? She's fierce, adventurous and caring!

Under the proposed legislation, police will be given the power to fine individual clampers up to $1000 and a company up to $5000 for breaking the rules. These fines increased to $3000 and $15,000 respectively if the matter ended up in court. Read the full story here.

I'm a big fan of Don McGlashan. I went to a gig in Melbourne where he was playing with the Muttonbirds. Somehow I managed to get to talk to him, he told me about how much he took scathing critiques to heart. I went to the next night's gig as well, I'm sure he thought I was stalking him. Have you met and spoken to someone you've idolised - rock, movie or sports star. Did they measure up to your expectations. Or maybe they were a crushing disappointment. We've love to hear about it.
