Ross’ retirement saw the beginning of his musical journey where his passion quickly evolved from making music, to crafting guitars. It all started when Ross and some mates joined a music group where the camaraderie and togetherness were just as important as the music.
Living in a Ryman village, Ross can continue living life to the full in his retirement because they are places where you don’t retire from life, you find a new way to live .
This ride is cancelled.
New announcement on Tuesday next week.

Hi does anyone have a cheap or free chicken coop they are wanting to part with? I’m getting two chickens so just something big enough for them for night time lock ups. Cheers

New Zealand is one of McDonald’s top ten beef-producing markets and it’s such a hit with the rest of the world that a significant percentage of NZ’s beef exports are to international McDonald’s markets.
We partner with many Kiwi farmers who produce our beef, including Whangara Farms which was the first beef farm outside of Europe to be invited to the McDonald’s Flagship Farmers programme.
ANZCO Foods, based in the small Taranaki town of Waitara, are responsible for making our 100% beef patties. About 90% of the staff at the Waitara plant are locals and they manage to produce around half a million patties each day.
Our quality beef cuts are minced and that’s it. No additives or fillers, just mince that is formed in patties, before they’re flash-frozen and sent to restaurants.

Hi Neighbours, hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather. We are pulling out excess flax plants; Phormium cookianum, a mountain flax.

Softer form, more attractive habit with blue green foliage and suits drier conditions than P. tenax. Grows around 1.5m high to 2m in diameter. Wonderful for attracting tuis and bellbirds when in flower. Currently we have 70 plants available, trimmed and in bags at $2 per plant - many more coming over the next few months. Either buy now, or put in an order. Text message Anna on 021 55 2112. Address for pick up is 99 Hinau Gully Road, Carterton. Look for gargoyles on stone gateway. Cheers.
