Are you using our 2021 Garden Diary?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Dear neighbours,

We're all working from home during this lockdown, not just to bring you your favourite gardening mag, but also our Garden Diary 2022! This is where we need your help: Show us how you've been using your 2021 Diary -- take photos of the pages, tell us what was most useful, did you have enough space to write your notes, what have you scribbled on the pages? Did you clip your plant labels on them? Perhaps shoot a little video with your phone as you turn the pages. Your feedback will help us put together next year's diary.

Please email your comments and photos to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, by this Friday, Aug 27. The five most helpful readers will each receive a free copy of the 2022 diary.

Fast paced comedy!!

Naomi from Tahunanui

I have agreed at very short notice to be involved in a Nelson Fringe Festival show! Alice has turned 65. On her party evening, she nods off watching late-night telly, and wakes in Retirementland. A wacky adventure ensues - the Rat Race sweeps her along and a wry cat asks difficult questions.
A playful kiwi comedy about rediscovering identity, and exploring and embracing life beyond work.
Alice in Retirementland features all your favourite characters in crazy new scenes adapted especially for Alice's latest adventure - rediscovering what is really important to her now that she has reached retirement age.
This mad action will appeal to anyone whether or not they are in a similar stage of life - there will be laughs for everyone as you spot your childhood favourites in their new roles.
This fabulous perennial tale has lost nothing in the re-telling, and promises a great night out for all!

Comedy show coming up!

Naomi from Tahunanui

Get ready for promotion time for Nelson Fringe Festival! First up is Dr Jo Prendergast Comedy! Come laugh through the tough stuff: songs, sketch and standup about #coping with juggling work, relationships, kids, menopause, illnesses and high maintenance indoor plants! From a multi award-winning comedian, psychiatrist, and fellow life juggler!
Yep, Dr Jo Prendergast is #coping! But only just!
Have you felt like you are juggling so many things in life, that at any moment they might all come crashing down? Or that there are so many unrealistic expectations about how you need to be?
Laugh and learn with toxically positive ‘Barbi’ skits, authentic lifestory comedy and a touch of TED talk from a psychiatrist – about how we cope with juggling the expectations that come with our multiple roles in life.
Jo's earlier show The Cool Mum won Audience Favourite and Best Solo Show Nelson Fringe.
She has featured on TVNZ’s Adam and Eve Show, The Jess Rowe Big Talk Show, The Project, Channel 9 Today Extra, ABC Weekend Breakfast, the AM show and TVNZ Breakfast, BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Scotland TV Best Jokes Edinburgh Fringe.
