The OK Boomers, Lunchtime concert, Wednesday 7th September
The OK Boomers will perform at the Methodist Centre (Whiteley Memorial Church) on Wednesday 7th September at 12.15 pm.
This is part of the weekly Lunchtime Concert Series held every Wednesday.
The OK Boomers is a five-piece music group formed on Zoom under lockdown in 2020. The group comprises Andy Bassett , Tony Hansen, Bev Tatham, Wayne Morris, and Peter Hickey.
They play a combination of vocal harmonies, guitar, ukulele, banjo, bass, saxophone and percussion. Despite the implications of their name, their music is not bound by genre or time – anything from John Fogerty to Lil Nas X, Herbie Hancock to Tami Neilson.
Entry is free but a Koha is appreciated. Bring a friend and some lunch and relax to some lovely music.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
