Choice News Tuesday: Our celebrity albatross is due for its first flight soon!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

The only mainland Royal Albatross breeding colony in the world can be found at Dunedin's Taiaroa Head. The Albatross are largest (and arguably the prettiest) seabird and is a taonga species to Mฤori.

Keen to see a fluffy royal albatross live? Head to the Royal Cam - a 24-hour live stream of an albatross nest.

Why the live feed? Well, the royal albatross are slow-breeding birds, and lay only one egg every two years.
Currently the chick in the feed is in its post-guard period, and is left alone. The parents are only returning with food every few days. This little chick will be hitting a milestone really soon - it will finally take their first flight in September! Keep an eye on our little celebrity here.

We hope this link brings a smile!

NZ Post and Rachel Boyack

Tony from Tahunanui

I see our MP, Labourโ€™s Rachel Boyack, is shedding crocodile tears over the NZ Post closures announced today for Nelson. Perhaps Rachel has โ€˜forgottenโ€™ 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 Labourโ€™s real position - public service or money?

N8tidy - Same garden. Massive transformation

Fred from N8tidy - Neat by Nature. Tidy by Trade

Big garden transformation completed ๐ŸŒฟโœจ

We recently finished a garden clean-up with some seriously visible results โ€” the kind of change that reminds us why we do what we do.

See walk-in video below (before/after): youtu.be...

At N8tidy, we are fully commited whatever the challenge you have:
๐Ÿ‘‰ showing up on time
๐Ÿ‘‰ working hard
๐Ÿ‘‰ delivering quality results
๐Ÿ‘‰ keeping prices fair and accessible

We genuinely want our Nelson/Tasman community to enjoy tidy, well-cared-for homes and gardens without it costing the earth. Affordable doesnโ€™t mean cutting corners โ€” it means caring about the people we work for.

Thanks to everyone supporting local ๐Ÿ™

If youโ€™ve got a garden that needs a reset, you know where to find us.
If you have a house that needs regular cleanup or one-off, we will exceeed your expectations.
