Before hitting the capital’s bus routes, the Metlink double-deckers sporting vibrant custom-made vinyl wraps, were unveiled to the designers Ellie Beaumont✓, 11, of Kāpiti and Bill Kelly✓, 8, of Wellington on Saturday.
Ellie’s design features famous scenes and landmarks from around Wellington including the Beehive, Matariki - the southern right whale, and Michel Tuffery’s✓ Nga Kina waterfront sculpture.
“I really hope that when people see my bus driving around Wellington it will make them happy, especially the bus passengers,” she said.

This week we have a lovely adoption update on Ruthie, who was recently adopted from Wellington SPCA.

"To say that adopting Ruthie has been an adjustment would be an understatement, to say the least.
We adopted her not long after our previous cat T passed away. So we went from having a big, old man cat who didn't really do much to having Ruthie, who is much younger and much livelier to contend with.
When I adopted her, I was told that she was quite shy and timid, that was true for the first week or so she was at home with us, but now she is loud and 'in your face' and takes great joy in running up and down the hallway and playing with toys.
She also loves to yell for attention in the middle of the night, but we are hoping that now she is spending more time outside, she will sleep a bit more at night and stop waking us up so early in the morning. She is very talkative, makes lovely prrp noises when she doesn't feel like meowing at us.
While she is very different from our last cat, she is very loved and has settled in well to her new home. She's come out of her shell a lot in the last few weeks and is making us all very happy to have her around. Thank you so much for helping me find her. Grace (Ruthie's forever person)."

Cheques are checking out! Banks in New Zealand are phasing out the use of the payment method which means we will no longer be able to take cheques for rates or services. From 15 June this year we will no longer be accepting cheques. There are loads of other ways to make payments, like direct debit, EFTPOS or internet banking, but we realise this change may be disconcerting for some. Help is available through our friendly service centre team, or by contacting SeniorNet. Visit kapiticoast.govt.nz/online-payments for more info.
