This week is Blind Week raising awareness and funds for the Blind Foundation to support those who are blind or have low vision.
94 year old Tom Beale is on a mission to thank the Blind Foundation after they helped him through a tough time. Let's help Tom give back to this wonderful organisation through Givealittle!

The mural was commissioned back in the late 60's as a historical, NZ important, acknowledgement, of the first ever powered air-craft landing, at a NZ place, of an over-sea's, departed air-craft.It appears to be blatantly one-eyed and ignorant, in its attitude of suggesting after some public outcry, that the mural concerned, may-be placed in a perplex cabinet, outside the terminal building. "Why" I ask?. The new build is 4 times lager than the present terminal, The local Puketapu sub-tribe, maori cultural narrative, which is costing the local rate payers a ridiculous $4.5 million dollars to have advice given about its need and set-up and display [ I bet the rate payers are paying for that as well] , does not need the total display space area. Sir Charles Kingsford -Smith's commemoration achievement on his flight across the Tasman Sea, at the very least, needs a prominent display, showing its importance of his landing at the Bell Block Aerodrome. There is a city wide petition now circulating about this issue. Please can you read and support it if you are inclined this way. This NPDC , other than 3 local Councillors, is ignoring the districts right to a better understanding of this local and NZ important memorial, piece of art. To keep this cultural narrative in perspective, should not the Waikato maori be given a display area in the terminal as well? They had cleared any local maori out of the whole district, for many many years, other than a few left at Ngamutu Beach. Thankfully they were saved by Dicky Barrett and a few brave whalers and maori associates? Just maybe the Hamilton rate Payers would like to support that happening by also giving $4.5 million towards a more open narrative?

Halloween is always associated with truckloads of candy! But this year it seems like things are changing and healthy snacks might be on the menu. Is this the case for you?

Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's not necessarily any healthier than other chicken.
As part of a new Stuff series, we look at why chicken is so cheap to buy nowadays, what happens inside the barn, why chickens get so big and the use of antibiotics in chicken feed. To learn more about what happens to your chicken before you put it in your shopping trolley, click the links above.

Their achievements are awe-inspiring and worthy of celebration. We’re a region of people who walk the talk. We see what needs to be done, and we get stuck in and do it. This is the spirit that makes the region what it is.
So congratulations to our winners, and to all the others out there working hard to make Taranaki an even better place.
David MacLeod, Taranaki Regional Council Chairman
There is nothing remotely green, or neighbourly, about your dog's faeces in the green waste wheelie I put out weekly, yet not a week goes by that I don't discover some in the wheelie. Please, bag it, certainly, but take it home or put it in a council bin? Thank you!
Need to put some straw or hay on vege garden. Wondering if anyone has some available. Preferrably not suitable for stock, damp or damaged, would be good. Thanks Alex.
Here is some photos of a wedding dress I altered last week.
