It's 2023. Here's hoping for some solutions to the world's problems before they become any worse!
45cm - 50cm knitting needle needed, the thinner the better - but I don't knit though! It's for pulling cables through a narrow aperture.
Happy to collect from anywhere.
I have a 2023 calendar from a local business if anyone would like it ?
Could probably even drop it to you if you're in Paraparaumu or Raumati.
Has anyone seen my baby Kirra? She got scared then lost when the fireworks went off tonight around Tutanekai St🫣🙏🏼 she's old and fragile please if anyone has seen her contact Sian on 0212259313 😞

If your kids or fur babies love our district's rivers or streams, stay safe this summer by keeping an eye out for toxic algae as the weather gets warmer. It can make people quite sick and can be fatal to dogs, even in tiny amounts.

Toxic algae can form brown or black mats that grow on rocks in the riverbed and wash up and dry on our riverbanks. Dogs love the smell and will eat it if given the chance, so never let them scavenge at the river's edge.
