Rebus Pahiatua
Calling all Senior Citizens - Pahiatua & Districts Rebus Club
A warm welcome awaits you at our local Rebus club. Aimed at retirees, we have a range of activities throughout the year to help you forge new friendships in your senior years. We have a monthly get-together focused on meeting and getting to know new people within the club, with time also allocated to a variety of speakers from within the club ("mini speakers") and external guest speakers. The speakers are usually both interesting and informative and frequently lead to questions and lively discussion. Free morning tea is provided.
Throughout the year we have a number of club outings and we frequently carpool. This is also an opportunity to get to know new people. Passengers are asked to contribute $5 towards car expenses. A Christmas lunch partially subsidised by the club is an popular and enjoyable annual feature.
When: Every 3rd Wednesday of the month
Where: Tararua Club, Tararua Street, Pahiatua
Subscription: $25 per year
Contact: Liz Barnes (President) 027 3388932 rebus.nz/pahiatua

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?

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.
